I've used the bottom of the two pictured levers for about a year. First with mini-Vs, then mini rear/normal v front, now with normal v's.
Minis are a pain in the arse - they require very close pad contact for a decent feel, which means they'll rub on an even slightly buckled wheel. The lever isn't designed for normal v's but it feels fine for polo use - the lever pulls back to the bar pretty much, but I can lock either wheel at will and there's enough modulation, although I'm endlessly fiddling with the barrel adjusters.
