Borat Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Which brake is good for front and rear..I would say BB7. The juicy's seals seem to always go, alot of my friends have them and they mess up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maladie Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 I know from riding my mates bike that BB7's on the rear are bloody awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freind zone Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 theres more than just peformance to a brake i've never had a go with avid juicys but i've felt them on mtbs and they seem prety good, assuming your using them for trials, have you considered the hope trial brake? I've ran a bb7 rear for trials i can't really fault it, has shitloads of power can also modulate fairly well if manuals are your thing there also the perk that you can replace parts easily, you don't have to bleed a cable, so you can't contaminate pads. you can buy a brake cable at any bikeshop, not everywhere will have a bleed kit to hand. carrying spares for a mechanical brake is alot easier than having a bleed kit and fluid too, just invest in a pair of good cable cutters, not your dads rusty one, it'l munch your cable outer and look unclean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
william Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 What rotors and levers go with bb7 better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pogo Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 SD7 lever, 203 rotor but make sure you get a good quality cable. On a mod you'll probably want a smaller rotor 203 will probably a bit overkill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freind zone Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 what rotors to use..is tryall rotor ok..the Adaptor if i change isit ok because i don have the avid wan..stick with the avid rotors, or use them till you destroy them, no point creating expense... ideally use SD7 levers over avid FR levers adjusting pull ratio on the levers is awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
