Just read the New Yorker piece on Grant Peterson which a friend mailed to me. Your comment reminded me of Mr Peterson, ascribing Deeper Meaning to mere bicycle parts,+1, especially regarding "they all worked just fine."
From my 1965 Weinmann sidepulls, through Mafac Racers, then Mafac Competitions, on to Universal Super 68 which I tossed aside for the latest deep blue anodized Modolo Pros, which I then sold to acquire the modern aero DiaCompe AGCs before I returned to classic aesthetics with NOS early 1970s Campagnolo Record, they all worked just fine. I have never suffered a lack of braking power. Leg power, yes, just not braking power.
And now in my dotage I'm back to a Swiss Weinmann front sidepull caliper on my fixie. La plus ca change and all that. There is no deeper meaning.
