I'd love to rock some on a street bike or xc again personally. On my xc bike I could stop on a gnats knob with maguras on ground rims....
Also pretty awesome stuff from the early days of extreme mtb:

They look much like the Echo levers I run on my trials bike.
For running HS33 brakes, all you need is a FireEye ShortFuse 360 frame. I have such with a modified version of Hydrostoppers (first version of the Magura hydraulic rim brakes) for my main ride.
