+1. I also prefer the quick release on the lever, as well. One can actually operate them, albeit clumsily, while riding. If your wheel starts to rub during a ride,you have some recourse. I also prefer the adjusting ferrules that are attached to the brake lever for the same reason. The grey plastic OEM Weinmann adjusters are inferior to the red anodized aluminum Dia Compe versions.
