Apologies if a little off-topic, but how are you getting on with the Ultimos? Kinda tempted for my next build, but info/reviews are scarce.

So far pretty good! I had a Chorus mechanical rim brake groupset that I wanted to use on a disc frame, so not many options were available (project thread soon). Setup was incredibly easy. Even easier than caliper rim brakes! In terms of power they are reasonable. More powerful than a rim brake, but less powerful than full hydraulic (bet you didn't see that one coming). They are better than other full mechanical disc brakes I have tried. They are very light too, if that matters to you.
If you already own a groupset that you want to convert to disc they are great. If I was speccing a bike from the ground up I would get full hydraulic. Better performance for the money.

Anyway, are yokozunas not just juin techs but with better cables? You can get the cables separately from.one uk supplier (can't remember which)

I was under that impression too, but also the juin tech graphics are pretty vile.

Yes I think they are made by Juin. Yokozuna provide a full kit (calipers, rotors, compression-less housing and nicer graphics). If you have mechanical levers they are the most convenient option.

Having a big clearout to pay for my next build. All prices should be a bit cheaper than eBay; let me know if anything is way out. All items located in Camberwell, SE5. Priority is given to collection but I can post at cost (UK only).
Many of these bits were split from my MoGOF builds, see here if interested in the frames... https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/360256/What we got...
