The lever feel is different than hydro, but I can still stop with 1 finger in most situations. The size of the klamper caliper may limit install options on some bikes as well.

As to whether than are worth nearly 3x more than Juin Tech R1 would depend on the application. The R1 are on my road / gravel bike with drop bars and the stopping power is more than sufficient. However, I don't bomb down dirt trails on this bike. I've heard that the fluid can overheat on hybrid brakes due to the small reservoir, and for this reason, I went with the Klampers on my mountain bike.

Note that full hydro brakes will stop just as good, if not better, than the Klampers, with less expense, but there is something about cable pull brakes that I like. I do expect the Klampers to last longer than the average hydro caliper.
