Note to our Great Customers: 
Update on our Shopping Center: 7 Mile Cycles is not being torn down, moving or closing its doors! Two new buildings are going to built in the same center that we are in and we will be moving into an all new space sometime in 2025!
We are very excited to see this project come together and look forward to our ALL NEW store at the corner of Higgins & Arlington Heights Road!

Avid BB5 Mechanical Disc Brake

Avid BB5 Mechanical Disc Brake
This item is currently not available.

Details

Avid takes entry level to a whole new level with the BB5s, which feature ball bearings (where the BB comes from in the name), a melt-forged body and a CleanSweep rotor for excellent stopping power and awesome durability. Plus, an inboard pad adjustment knob lets you dial in the perfect distance between the rotor and the pads, while Avid's ingenious Tri-Align caliper-positioning system perfectly aligns the pads parallel to the rotor in seconds. And, the tool-free pad replacement and adjustment makes quick work out of accommodating for pad wear, so you always have positive, powerful braking.
