when I built up my Moser this spring, I bought ebay new-off-floor-bike Chorus brakes for it. I'm sure they were replaced on the floor bike with skeletons, and came from carbon rims - they had Bontrager cork pads installed. Best brakes I've ever had, by far, but had to replace them after 800 mi. At $25/pair, that would add up in a hurry. I replaced them with Kool Stop.
