Well how 'bout the Campagnolo Delta brake caliper's evil twin in the styling department, the SGR clipless pedal / boat anchor. They also have the clean look and are heavy and go for _peanuts_ on eBay. Seems like no one wants them, clean look or no.

. Hey, humorus and change the subject line, every one, even Chuck. This massage had little if anything to do with the masi

Anyway, I give a thumbs down along with Chuck the designer, but my Fine Art background and instinct are still pointing upward with the Deltas. Form following function. Aero at least in concept as following the frame and fork crown area lines. This is something akin to what Iremember reading in bike world when aerodynamic articles soon took over from drill tech.

They even mentioned using CENTER PULL brakes that more closely followed the frame lines over sidepulls that had protrusions.
