esfrost Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 I know that quite a few here using avid bb7 on the rear. Im thinking about getting one of these pads, but cant decide wich one. Is there anyone who tried them? I have never heard about EBC or A2Z brands, but i heard that kool stop makes some decent pads for vees and canties, what about discs? Are they any better than the standard ones that comes with the brake? Im going to use it in my rear avid bb7 on my czar mod. Thanks in advance for the help.

James Quigley Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 EBC reds are supposed to be the best.That's as much help as I can be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Token Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 I personally think the standard pads are faultless. You could give some other brands a go and see how you get on, but seeing as the normal pads are pretty perfect I don't know what more you'd expect to get?

AND the fact that the only BB7 I ever used with non-standard pads (EBC reds as it happens) was a bit rubbish. It could have been any number of reasons, but there's really no reason to get anything other than the Avid originals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr8grumble Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 The standard avid pads are amazing, just dont drag the brake down a hill to much, they heat up and work less effecttively for a about 30mins, that is the only downside to them.graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
