For lovers of the mechanical disc brake: the BB5 Road by Avid


The BB5 Road is a no-compromise disc brake for riders looking for a system without hydraulics on their road racer. The mechanical system allows for simple adjustment and is much easier to maintain than a hydraulic disc brake. The Avid Ball Bearing 5 Road combines the advantages of a mechanical brake with the braking performance of a disc - especially in wet conditions. The set comes without brake levers and cables. These would have to be ordered separately if required.
The brake can be used as a front or rear brake and can be operated with all SRAM Double Tap shift/brake handles (Red, Force, Rival, Apex).

Funktioniert ausgezeichnet auf meinem Simplon Kagu Reiserad, Setup mit 180/160 Discs, alten Ultegra 10-fach STI, Ultegra Umwerfer, Deore-Kurbel (2-Kettenblätter), XT-9 fach Schaltwerk und 10er-Kassette (11-36). In Anbetracht des Preises und der sorglosen Bedienung ein sehr gute Bremse. 1 bis 2 mal im Jahr muss man die Beleg nachstellen, das gehört halt dazu. Einziges Manko ist die ausladende Breite in Verbindung mit Lowrider und Gepäckträger. Bin sehr zufrieden.
