I use Cyclo-Cross levers (mine are Tektro) and they work great! No doubt Salsa and/or Cane Creeks would look better!

I use a cane creek in-line brake lever (crosstops?) with the front brake. Works fine.

cross levers only work with cross bikes, just like road levers only work with road bikes.
You can only put track brakes on your track bike or else it will spontaneously combust.

cane creek = exactly the same as tektro only more $$$
