Direct mount EE's are so 2019, get yourself some epic Ciamillos if you wanna stop like it's 2008 again
You will need a new frame though.

Don't trust Competitive Cyclist's website for good tech information. Saying that as a former employee, the content team isn't too saavy on cycling knowledge. Both the brakes you posted are in fact rears, which are made for under BB mounting. At the same time, it doesn't matter, it's just uglier.

That's interesting. I was only seeing the regular mount brake calipar when I was on their page. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

Update: I sent the other calipers back and have installed the correct G4 calipers. All light weight and good now.

I've taken the Emonda out for a couple rides and the brakes are top notch. I may install a set on my other bike, not DM though.
