ah, excellent - first time ive seen a pic of these - only drawings so far... these are neat, cause the cable attaches at the same point as that roller, and the roller actually rolls along the pad attachment platform, pushing the arm up, and the pads toward the rim... dual pivot? well, theres 2 pivots... you be the judge! :) im a sucker for interesting brake design... drawing of one of these set up is in the data book, page 116
