The new style levers work so sweet with the brakes. Just click in the lever release and you get enough clearance to unhook the cables from the calipers and unlimited wheel clearance without lowering air pressure to get your wheels in and out. With just the lever release I can get my Flexus out, without monkeying with be brakes at all, which is very nice for a pit stop.

The quick release on the shifter is on all years, but I went with the new Veloce levers as they have a light weight and still retain the good ergos.

Yep, same on the EuroX Carbons.. Im using Centaur 10s from 2009... the great thing about the Carbons and Mags is the adjustabkle stradle cable as well...

Also use "old" Campy with TRP and it works well to get the wheel of. One problem can be the fork, the pads hit the inside of the fork legs on some forks.

Last Friday I ordered a Ridley X-Fire. I will be building it up with Campy Super Record and the TRP Euro X Magnesium brakes. The bicycle shop staff raved about the stopping power and adjustability of the Euro X brakes.

Just to add to my love (so far) the included carbon pads also work very well. I use Reynolds rims and have no braking issues wet or dry. I've gained enough braking control to get rid of my unmanly :lol: top brake levers.
