Well, ignoring the ad honimem attacks and playing the ball rather than the man, then yes, some of my bikes have some pretty sketchy brakes, including Weimann centre-pulls, and there's definitely a difference compared to them and more modern brakes. As I said, I've never used 926AL brakes - that pleasure is yet to come. However, as I hold them in my hands, they seem like pretty chunky numbers which look sturdy enough. Maybe I'm wrong, and they are an order of magntidue worse than TRP CX brakes. I doubt it, but I'll rely on personal experience on that front.
