Light and cheapish at £60 odd quid a pair, anyone got experience of how well they perform?

I have the posh CNC machined versions. They stop way better than the generic Cannondale and Shimano 105 calipers I have previously used but then I have swiss stop green pads which may account for the difference.
Getting the wheel out can be a PITA though due to the way the cable anchors onto the brake.
