I've had ekar for a couple of years. It's been great. The brakes are just super.
Indexing is defo more touchy than 10/11s. Make sure you've got nicely square cut cables and spend time getting it right. Once it's dialed in its stays nailed for a good while.
I think often people run the hoods too far down the bars, which accentuates the bump and isn't very comfy.
5/7 strong recommend.
