Question

Hey, I want to run Avid BB7s on my new bike I'm building up but I don't know much about linear-pull levers because I've been running hydros since i left the BMX game. So far all I've heard is AMAZING things about Avids 'Speed Dial' line. I'm the kinda person that will fork up a $hitload of cash for a good product (liek my Hope Mono6 lol YIKES!) so any suggestions? Any BMXers out there that recommend BMX levers or anything? I just want to see what my options r before I put out $250 for the Avid SD Ultimate lol PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

Answer 1

Linear pull levers will be fine for mechanical discs.

Answer 2

I&#039;ve never used the Speel Dial levers.  I have used Cane Creek Direct Curve levers.  They work well, are very light, and inexpensive.

Good luck.

Hope this helps.

Answer 3

I can not tolerate Avids sloppy construction of their lower end v brakes,but the low end levers are good.

My 2.0 speed dial levers are awesome.[I&#039;ll never sell them,had them over ten years now]

The Avid Speed Dial Ultimate lever is in the class of the Elite shopper indeed.Sealed bearings,nice.

Worth every damned penny.

I have never seen a used  pair of those levers for sale in my area ever.Only a fool would sell them.

I hope my mere opinion can help you in some way
