cxmagazine has a picture of new trp eurox brakes that have a barrel adjuster and actual toe-in that doesn't involve bending the brakes with pliers! Is there anyone out there riding the 08 version who can comment on how well they work? I'm pretty excited to get these when they come out as they sell for $50/wheel and are super light. As a bonus, having a barrel adjuster (without top mounts) would be sweet.

Saw 'em, too. But, I checked the TRP site and they haven't got them on their site yet. I don't know if I would go for the mag version, though.

list the price as a bit more than $50/wheel. Maybe that's just the upgrade kit?

I was hoping new versions of both the eurox and the eurox magnesium would have the toe in and barrel adjuster, but you're right that might not be the case. $50 was the price for regular eurox this past season. I imagine the regular aluminum version plus the upgrade kit would still closer to $50 than the $150 quoted on cyclingnews for the mags.
