The S76 brake was designed to stop a railway engine whereas the 155 brake previously saw service on the Tour de France!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey, that brake would never stop a modern racing bicycle in the TDF. It was seconded from a 2CV!

No serious racing cyclist would ever be seen dead in a French helicopter with all that cheap automotive gear installed.
