I used an Avid BB7 with a road lever- I was told that there was both a road lever and an MTB lever version.
Needless to say I ordered the road version and the MTB version turned up, so I had a look at it and returned it.
Three weeks later and the road version turned up- identical to the MTB one bar the inclusion of one of those cable tensioning things that Shimano STI's use on the gear cable- a sort of barrel style adjuster.
The brake itself worked extremely well- very happy with the power, and I am used to Avid Juicy Carbon's clamping 180mm rotors on the MTB.
