I know it's more expensive, but using a dirty harry meant it was easier to make and the lever is far better at modulating road brakes powerfully, I like it.
I've considered using a Shimano Power Modulator so that I can lock up the rear but still have cablepull to be able to lock up the front later on. IE: Halfpull back brake, full pull front and back.
At the moment you have to be super precise or have both come on at the same time, I keep endoing.
