Mr Bob Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Bb7's mint, imo better than the hopes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Yoshi Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 I have a avid elixer at the min. Would highly recomend one. If it can stop my fat arse it can stop anyones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Beck Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 iv had my share of both im my time.. and always problems have occurd with hope mono's at times playing up feeling spongey and abit of a slippy bite..but since i came across avid BB7, i fell in love best disk break for the front i say.. never ridden one on the back, although i have ridden both front and rear hope mono's on my montys etc.. id go for the bb7 mate..all the way!! hope this helps!Mikey'Cx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canardweb Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 V-brakes are cheaper, better and lighter! Now if you want to stick with a front disc brakes, do with a BB7! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsmax04 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 (edited) Am i the only one who likes the mono trial? Mine is insane power and hold. When i god it it wasnt brill as i got it second hand, but a new rotor and pads soon sorted that. If your brake feels a bit pants, change the pads, clean the pistons and rebleed. I did this and mine is just ridiculus. Its actually ruined my hedset!Not forgeting the pimp factor of a hope! max Edited October 20, 2009 by trialsmax04 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 The new BB7s (black ones) are shite though. If you can get an old silver one then go for BB7, but if not go for Hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greetings Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 BB5's are the best mech brakes in my opinion. Much cheaper than BB7's and just as powerful, if not more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
