How does the new centering mechanism work?
The old eccentric mounting bolt is the most interesting part of eebrake

I think calling it a cover is a bit misleading, you do not mount the brake and then mount the shield over it. It is an aero replacement of the bridge that would normally be alloy. If it were a cover I don't think it would be UCI legal, but as it is it's an integral piece of the brake, that is the brake will not work without a bridge and you can use either the flat alloy bridge or the carbon aero bridge.
Bman I'll try and snap a few more pictures this afternoon.

Is it possible to see the shield off of the brake. So if I am correct, you remove the metal brace, and replace it with the shield. So that is how it is held in place. So there is no way this would be a retrofit to the old brakes.

correct it replaces the metal bridge. It will not work on older brakes as it only fits direct mount brakes.
