DeeZee Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Love Avid BB7's... bit harder to come by now though. But like all brakes, its the pad that you should think about, not so much the name of the capiler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaffacakes Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 (edited) Defiantly a Hope Disk. You get allot more feel over the bike and my hope just locks nowadays, no messing around. You also don't get random people shouting "oil your breaks" It's nice and silent.Edit. Here is another topic like this mate. Link.

wilky_mod_legend2 Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 HiGetting a front disk is a good choice i think. I would say get the magura juile, i have it and its great and cheap, you can get it for 60 i think.Worth having a look at, if you know some one with it, ask for a go on there bike you will feel how powerful it is.Cheers Wilky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
