Not really, I've never had a problem with braking even in the wet using Swiss Stop pads and good cables/set up. I enjoy the simplicity of calipers and I think parts which are easy to maintain/service/adjust yourself are very important.

Yep, 9 speeds are enough for anyone, changes perfectly, easy to service, parts are cheap.

You have 9 speed don't you Sumo?
