If @

Remember the principle of KISS? And the wisdom of "If it ain't broke....."
Being an old school 'cross racer I've ridden Right_Front, Left_Rear brakes for over 40 years, are the mfs going to accommodate that? It's easy w/ calipers & cables and I'm not about to change.
I am far from a cycling Luddite but will resist the pressure from mfgs to force a complicated, expensive and inelegant technology with no discernable benefit on me.
