Tektro R200/Cane Creek SCR-5 vs Sram S500

• Theres no spring in the s500's (unlike shimano or tektro levers) so if your only using one brake the other lever rattles about, you can loop a bit of innner tube over the body of the brake and the blade, then pop the hood back over
  
  

I love the shape and look of the s500 - but like with most STI style levers, it increases the reach because they are longer than standard aero levers. I prefer the cane creek/ tektro shaped one. (Also, i thought tektro stopped making the r200, and only make the rl340 ugly ass lever now?)
