Several pro team use them. CSC - Ivan Basso 2004 TdF, Jelly Belly and
Jittery Joes, I think. They were listed on the Zero Gravity website
last year.
You can upgrade them to the new OG-05 version which corrects some
"quirks" in the origninal CAT design like uneven pressure on both
sides and better centering. The 05 models are also lighter and have
25% more braking force and the quick release opens wider thanks to a
new cam.

I orignally purchased the CAT version on eBay in 2003 and upgraded
last year to the OG-04 version. The upgrade involes sending your
existing brakes back to the factory to be remachined. The 04 upgrade
was definitely worth while and the 05 upgrade should be even better.
Quoted message said:They are the pre-cursors to the zerogravity brakes sold today.
