They have little optical displays which are really not useful at all without graduations but they're there if you like them.

edit: you said you had the CX9's so you should be good to go.

I read somewhere that the "road v-brakes" I have are 86mm but I measured from the pivot point to the point where my cable clamps down at 90mm just for reference.
