@wav3ydave Oh, interesting! I'm struggling with a road bike's tubeless setup at the mo, and was thinking of giving up and sticking a tube in. Maybe TPU and this is what I've been looking for.

@wav3ydave @adamrice @MrAndrewD @bicycling I carry them. But have never used them. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@computersandblues @bicycles How about keeping it on brand with newer dual-pivot Dia Compes? https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/brakes/front-chrome-diacompe-brs101-racing-caliper-brake/
Your levers ought to be fine, but more modern ones do tend to have more ergonomic hoods which can make for more/comfier riding positions. Maybe something retro-ish like: https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/brake-levers/origin8-classique-sport-drop-road-brake-levers-silver-black/
