BB7 are my preference due to reliability, accessibility of spares and ease of servicing when the time comes.
Spyre are not too bad either, dual actuated pads which is an upgrade over BB7 but other than that nothing much.
Could I live with adjusting the pads once a week? Yeah, why not.
Cool cool. Thanks beagle
Oh yeah, BB7 comes in long and short pull while Spyre are short only unless you wanna go for the beefy Spyke.
Also, avoid BB5 at all cost!
