I have both with my Rohloff. Stops on a dime. The front has SA drum brake with 25,000 miles.
The levers are unbelievably comfortable and they don't seem to be eroding either. Used them all the last 3,900 mile tour and a bit more. They look better than anything else IMO. I switched the rivet to long pull. I bought 2 pairs at the time, I'm so glad. I have old chrome swept back 70d bars.

Black levers will lose the finish anyway, so forget that.
