Ive seen those come on cheap bikes because of bad cable routing issues. (A 1995 cheap women's Giant MTB comes to mind) The brakes worked fine. They are ugly though.

I have the Avid versions mounted at my STI levers on my drop-bar Kelly 29". They allow me to mount a handlebar bag and clear the cables. I used it for 17 days straight in Honduras this winter, about 50/50 pavement/jeep trails, and they work perfect. www.arkel-od.com, which makes excellent handlebar bags and panniers for both road and MTB, recommends the rollamajigs for this application.
