When I built up my V-brake equipped tourer, I used the 287V because it was the only thing available at the time. No matter what I did, the brakes always seemed a little mushy. I switched to the Tektro levers as soon as they became available, and they made a huge difference in the feel. I'm also using a pair of the Tektro levers now on my mechanical disk equipped Xtracycle, and they work great in that application as well. I do have the 287V levers somewhere in my "parts bin" if you still need one...
