People must like the clean look of Delta brakes and that gets them over the weight... They certainly seem to be in demand (the two sets on E-bay right now are both around $225). I'll admit to having a great appreciation for the visual appeal of the whole C-record group... very Art Deco looking. In fact they're probably my favorite Campy parts in the looks department. And I'm counting down to the day they pass the on-topic threshold so's I won't have to appologize to Dale every time I mention them (sorry Dale...)
