For yours having tri bars i would suspect that yeah they changed the brake levers when they put the Tri bars on. not sure how well a non aero brake lever would function with Tri bars.
Yep, good call; aero gran comps on mine too. They seem very nice, and the slightly shorter reach than stock handlebar stem suits my size too.
