So! I got home this evening and took a good long ride on the 'yata, and discovered that my Avid Speed Dial levers have a leverage adjust. I cranked 'er all the way CCW and it's almost a decent braking feel! .. Almost. I will investigate some canti levers soon, but this should keep me riding.

As for the Trek with the Ult's... I am going to sell the bike, or at least the frame very soon. Should I keep the Ultegra brakes or let them go? Seems like the nicest components on the bike, those and the moustache bar. Will they increase the resale or just be good parts on there for no reason?
