JP, thanks much. I called him and he doesn't speak English. I'll ask my friend in HK to call him next week, and have also asked KCNC TW for a list of HK dealers.
The $412 price you paid isn't bad as they list for $490.
The full set weighs only 245g (2 levers, 2 brakes), compared for example to Extralite (Italy) brakes at 260g for $682, or "normal" brakes like Shimano XTR's (which are awesome stoppers) at 590g for $330. The extra cost to cut 350g is worthwhile; though who needs logic if you just like them and want them on your bike!
