For me, Paul brakes are not worth the retail price. Good V-brakes (the level above department store) are universally well-functioning. Paul buys you the name on the brake arm and probably some more freedom from maintenance. Now, I think it's important to point out that I've owned one set of mini-motos. I found them finicky. TRP mini-Vs were better. Will I still probably buy a set of Paul's if they're a good used deal? Probably. Not going to spend $500 on them, though.
