Ah well if anyone is willing to sell their mount DA9000 brakes for these then I'll buy them! Based in the UK.

other then a weight savings... there really isn't one. I was using the 9010 for a time,but went with a stages PM on my wife's madone and the 9010s would hit the PM... so I got some tektros.. and now the EE's

I received mine last Friday and took them out for the first test ride on Saturday. They are everything I have ever wanted a brakeset to be. Simply amazing performance. Worth every penny.
Have you ever wondered if there was more to life, other than being really, really, ridiculously good looking?

Those are some beautiful brakes! I'd ditch the fairing... Why cover up such a masterpiece?!
