I'm still looking. There are some really nice CNC'd U-Brakes out there. The prices are all over the place though. Like your High Sierra, my bike has a chainstay mounted U-Brake. From what I can tell some of the newer CNC'd brakes are too bulky to use on chainstays. There's too much interference with the tire and chain on a MTB.
