BB7 disc brake differences?
Oct 1st, 2014, 12:34pm
 
Avid makes the BB7 disc brake in both "Road" and "MTN"...   other than the color/anodizing, is there any difference?  I'm wanting to put one on the rear wheel on the Rocket, to replace the BB5...

The MTN ones are what I have on the Giro.  They work fine.  I do not know of any mechanical differences, but you might call Avid to see.

From a post on BROL - "BB7 sets are available for MTB (cantilever levers) or Road (caliper brake levers)."
