You mean the BR MT 201s?

I am leaning that way... one guy on the Jones bike page I belong to suggested new levers, which brought new life to his brakes, but shoot, for the price of the levers he was recommending I could damn-near by a set of these 2 piston hydros! Also, new levers doesn't solve for the lack of outboard adjustment problem

Side note - my levers do have two anchor points, it shipped with the cable attached to the canti postion. I moved to the V brake position (less mech leverage) and they do feel better and I can no longer bottom them out. Jeff Jones says you can use either position on the levers but I disagree and so does Tektro.
