FWIW I'm currently using mtb bb7s with tektro rl520s. I've had zero problems.
The (much more expensive) Cane Creek offerings that I also considered look good, if suspiciously similar, and seem to have nicer hoods.
I like my setup. But it is on a 26" drop-bar mtb / children carrying/ do everything biek. So I'm not sure how that sits vs your project.

I've read some older posts on forums where people say the short pull road lever works great with long pull MTN BB7s given the clearances are tight enough, while others didnt have as much luck. Im trying to stick with MTN bb7s because they can be had for a decent price second hand, while I much prefer the shape of the hood and levers of the Tektro RL340 road over the RL320 v brake compatible drop levers.
Any personal experiences and do you think it worth giving it a shot?
