I just read through the thread with interest - I didn't realize it was from Sept 2022 until the last post!
I've used Paul cantis, a Neo-retro /Touring setup, and Minimotos. Minimotos were the only brake that worked on two bikes to eliminate judder. Absolutely worth it for that alone. I sold one pair when I parted out the Pinarello cross bike, and the other set will probably stay on the Frances forever. I've never used the Paul levers, but now I'd consider it if I ever build a flat-bar bike again. Paul drop bar levers would be AMAZING, in both long and short pull. I have Moon Units on the Quickbeam, since the special green anodizing looks good with the bike (it clashed with the Frances green). I mimicked the straddle height from the CX-50 stock setup, and they work great. I do have a set of NIB Klampers I considered building a bike around, but went with yet another canti-post bike (a Bruce Gordon, woot!). Philip Sonoma County, Calif (did it really just stop raining?)
