I'm just saying that in comparison to the endless shit show that is apex 1. Cracked master cylinder assemblies, leaking bladders and a final good bye via a stripped thread where banjo bolt meets the plastic lever body courtesy of an eager bike shop mechanic which I discovered a year after the fact.
Trying to fix it being an endless stream of "why is it spongy again???" ... Mixed with washing off for fluid of surfaces, hands, tools.
In comparison to that BB7s are a poster child of reliability and maintainability. Also positively more powerful than the TRP spyre that I had to use for the front now since the new fork is flat mount.
