I'm pretty sure the 2.1 comes with black Tektro R540 dual-pivot calipers and not 105 calipers to match the rest of the 105 groupset on the bike -although they look almost identical.  

ah, you are right my friend.  Thanks for pointing that out. I updated the ad. 

I learned this the hard way myself.  

I was on the buyer's end of deal on a used partial 105 groupset take-off from a 2.1 that wasn't quite as advertised.  I should have been paying better attention.  That seller thought they were really 105 too.   Trek saved a bunch of money with the Tektros and I have to say they are every bit as good a brake as the 105 dual-pivots except for that fancy Shimano-105 stenciling.
