Looks like they're the MTB version for regular v-brakes. The road version for cantis/calipers/mini-v is the FL740: https://www.tektro.com/products.php?p=73 Both pages on the tektro site link to the same instruction manual but that's probably a mistake on the CL740 page. The instruction manual references the FL740 and the pictures show the quick release thing on the lever.
A bit of questioning this morning.
I have a set of Tektro CL740 installed on my gf's bike associated with Tektro R539 calipers.
Previously I used these levers on my own bike with Shimano 105 calipers also.
Did not notice anything odd at all ; however planning on changing the brakes on a family bike, I was looking at these levers because I like their look and feel, and came across something odd:
Since I already installed them and they seem to work fine with calipers, I do not have any problem in using them again, just wondered what was going on and also wanted to satisfy my curiosity.
Anyone came across these types of case?
