Keep in mind, the 720 is a wide-profile canti and therefore has less leverage than a low-profile canti (like the Shimanos) would have with a reasonably low yoke. They are excellent brakes for the price, though.

I think the fact that you can run the Ultimates either wide or narrow is a little gimmicky. I've never felt that I needed more rim clearance than I can get with a low-profile set of brakes.
