I guess brake "feel" is more tumblr or something...

wut? by feel I mean adjustability (distance from rims), leverage and modulation. Power generally is there in most scenarios .. yeah Tumblr >>>> ;)

My point was "feel" is subjective. There's a mathematical reason they produce two different arm lengths and that matching them up to the cable pull from your levers is good place to start, then decide if you want a little more grab/mush.

leverage and adjustability tho ..

with 90mm arms i've had to push the doubletap levers all the way to drops to move pads couple of mm towards the rim. 85mm is perfect. I feel on a road bike 80mm should be fine too with 35mm tyres and a guard hence Paul racers brazed on is the best solution.
