The trick with weinmans is setting the caliper arm tension correctly. There should be no play but still move smoothly. Too much play and you will get chatter or brake squeal, too tight and the arms won't be coordinated. You need a thin 10mm wrench (as thin as a cone wrench) to do it right and it takes some fiddling. Once they are set, they work very well and brake hard.
