Which of the campy look-alike road levers has enough pull for v-brakes? Is it the Cane Creeks or Tektros (520s are the long-pull ones?).

Currently running old XT parallel-push v's with some old shimano road levers - brakes work surprisingly well but my hands hate the levers.

I just put on a set of the Tektro Drop V levers with mini-Vs and am very much liking them. The levers are probably a bit heavy but feel very, very good. Nice finish, fit and function. Can't tell how they hold up yet, but I'm not expecting problems.

And yeah, they are shaped like Campy ergo. Actually feel nicer than the Mirage levers.
