When dual-pivots became a thing, I was so keen to get one on the front. Was a right pauper at the time, so had to wait until I could scrounge one from the random parts bin at my LBS...
First emergency stop, I went straight over the bars, and was totally stoked about it. Next emergency stop saw my back wheel in the air for a few metres as I balanced the bike around the head tube. Fuck yeah, finally enough front brake.
Never thought I needed more rear brake once my kit exceeded like RX100 (Tiagra-ish) spec; was puzzled why I was the only one I knew of with DP/SP until Campy finally agreed with me and made it an option. Especially since too much brake hurts modulation...
A nice fastback seat cluster like on that powder blue thing would look sleeker with a single-pivot, for sure. And if monostay, it should be regarded as compulsory.

That's rather swish. Shame it lacks a single-pivot rear brake
