PS, on second thought, you do get levers with these, I guess that makes it totally reasonable.

I gave a couple of pair of those away a few years ago and kept one pair for my meuseum, now I've got a guy insisting I sell them to him. If he weren't such a pr!ck I would but I just don't like the guy so I told him 1000.00 If he comes up with that disregard anything I may have said about him earlier.

The buyer of the Delta's would probably say the same thing about someone paying $$$$$ for a Mevici frame/fork....

I always have to chime in on this topic; the worlds worst brakes in a beautiful package, etc, etc.

Apparently this seller has already sold a set for $800

one day ... when I'm made of money, maybe I too will spend $800 on brakes (or whatever they're selling for when that days comes lol)

[bostondrunk]

I guess I'm alone in that I love Campy Delta brakes. Seriously.
Besides, it's pretty damn rare that anyone needs the full stopping power of the more current brakes.
All those poor pro riders that died because of their shoddy Delta brakes............... :p

[saab2000]

I also own a pair of Record Delta brakes and find them to be completely reasonable stoppers. And there have NEVER been better looking brakes. Ever.

I will sheepishly admit that the new Record brakes are better IMHO, but that does not mean that the Delta brakes sucked. Most people who complain about them either had them set up wrong or never owned them.
