I do remember seeing a them on PlanetX some time ago.
So these aren't a bad braking system to use and safe? I currently run 6800 callipers but fancy a different look and to remove some weight off the bike.

I have the CNC versions which are even lighter.
You can find them as "July" oder "July 21" brakes, they're made by a company called Mr.Control, and also come branded as Fouriers etc.
They work very well for me.

Anything but EE brakes and you'll die off the side of a cliff
