Haven't quite figured out what the advantage of a radial is, from a hydraulics perspective so long as the force (i.e leverage) and piston area are the same then you'll get the same braking. Except for a better quality item being smoother in its action I don't know what the effect is.

I know I'd rather have a good quality axial than a crap radial though

Can anyone else elaborate?
