Any recommendations for replacement pads for BB7s? Are Kool Stop just as good at disc brakes as they are at rim brakes?

I've had enough of mine squeaking and no amount of disc brake cleaner works...

Have you tried copper slip on the rear of the pads? A lot of the noise is caused by dry pads rubbing against the piston and echoing within the caliper. A bit of copper slip prevents this.
It's the same as you/a mechanic would do on a car
