These are excellent rim brakes, probably the best. I have some on a GT Team Trials bike that I play around on in my driveway. In terms of rim brakes, they are probably the best you can get.
Even so, most trials bikes are moving away from any kind of rim brakes to disc brakes. Trials riders are generally not concerned about rim wear, but rather the ability to instantly stop and hold the wheel. If you're not familiar with bicycle trials, search Youtube for Ryan Leach or Danny Macaskill.
