AvidDisc Brake BB5 Road Platinum Cps (Rotor/Bracket Sold Separately):

Following a dramatic caliper failure on a long downhill run in torrential rain, resulting in me bailing from an out of control bike which landing me in a hedge, I wanted a brake caliper I can rely on. Following much research and recommendations from other leisure cyclists, I opted for this Avid 55 caliper and have no regrets.It fitted easily, was straightforward to align and works exactly as it should. The fixing bracket isn't supplied but organic brake pads are although I replaced these with BB5 sintered for the best downhill braking performance in wet weather - having learned a valuable lesson when extricating myself from the hedge.After using these, I then replaced the calipers on other bikes too and from now on will avoid the unbranded cheapies fitted to budget bikes.Highly recommended and replacement pads are easily sourced.

Does exactly what it is supposed to.

Good price for well renowned product.

Disappointed that the image is misleading. The bracket and rotor are NOT included. The caliper , pads and mounting bolts are the only things you are buying. If you need the bracket, that's another £6.00.

Top Bremse! Montiert auf Fresh-Breeze Xcitor.

Diciamo che provenendo da diversi freni idraulici, la differenza di frenata si sente molto.Va bene per leve freno da corsa.Molto comoda la regolazione delle pastiglie.

Gute Bremse zum fairen Preis. Einstellung wie bei Scheibenbremsen üblich etwas fummelig bis nichts mehr schleift.
