I was wondering how avid brakes perform as far as trialsing goes. If they would be good, what model would you buy?
Also how heavy is ur bike??

u mean v's or disk? well watever as far as disks go bb7 is awesome especially for the price but ive only rode one as a front brake hasnt failed me yet and for v brakes the Sd7s are sweet but nothin beats avid ultimates, the sd7s work awesome just dont last aslong and the switch able noodle on the ultimates is handy if you run moto style levers. my bikes around..26-27 ish but i could bring it down a pound or so prolly

Yeah the avid BB7's are some of the best.

dont get any of the hydraulic for trials. For MTBing they are awesome.

im putting bb7's on my bike.

I am running a sd7 on the front of my bike with stock break pads and it has excellent lockup
