Perfect for your road, touring and cross bike, Avid's BB7 Road brakes have all the power you need. Used with your road-style levers, they provide precision actuation as well as tool-free pad replacement. Plus, Avid's ingenious Tri-Align caliper-positioning system perfectly aligns the pads parallel to the rotor in seconds for powerful braking with positive modulation in any condition.
The BB7's by Avid were replacements for the promax disk that came standard on my bike. What an improvement! The power of the brakes improved exponentially! These are even better than some hydraulic systems! The only downside to these brakes is that when they get wet they get noisy, very noisy. Not a big problem but just worth mentioning.
