Cred: 2387		Review by dogonfr on Jul. 14, 2008

Good Features
 If your looking to go from V-brakes to a disc brake the BB7 is the best way to go with the least amount of expense and the best mechanical disc on the market. Would recommend also replacing cables and housing when upgrading to the BB7.
Bad Features
 Nothing bad all good.
