They matched up fine with the rims but felt mushy or soft at first. I tweaked the angle of the straddle cable so they grabbed before my levers ran out of play. Pretty good now.
I had it powder coated so it isn’t fair to compare with an original and I don’t have the nice head tube paint to match the decal like from the factory.
