Manufacturer's product description
EBC Disc Brake Pads - Magura 'Louise' & 'Clara' (early) Caliper Specifications: GREEN - Crosscountry Trekking grade for general use RED - High Friction Soft" compound for Downhill Race use only GOLD - High durability sintered metal compound for longer life in arduous conditions such as wet riding or use in mud or sand. NOT to be used for Downhill race use unless system is fitted originally with gold (sintered) brake pads to avoid brake overheating."
Advantages: 4 pot brake, hard wearing, solid build quality. Disadvantages: Difficult to set up.
...I bought these a couple of years ago and I have never ridden with a brake that is so good. I rode with maguras for a while and when I upgraded to the Hope discs i could tell the difference immediately.
these brakes are used by some of the top riders in the world so that obviously shows that they are a top component to add to your bike.
Once set up they can be left until new pads are needed, they take a little time to set up however once they are done they are excellent, they do not need bleeding very often as they stop air getting into the system very well.
Do not buy any other brake system, this is the best and worth every penny....

Advantages: Easy to fit and maintain plus great price Disadvantages: Will need adjusting from time to time
...of lower-priced hydraulic brakes as an alternative to the BB7s, check out a set of Hayes HFX-9s or Avid Juicy 5s - both brakes offer quality hydraulic stopping power for only a little more money than the BB7s.
Durability:
Avid utilizes a series of seals on the BB7 calipers that keeps dust, grit, and mud out of the assembly and, as a result, I had no major issues with the Avid BB7 calipers during the product test. While I'd like to see greater durability from the pads - some sets of pads lasted a couple of months while others had a much shorter lifespan - the brakes themselves functioned the same on the first day I mounted them as the day I wrote this review.
Pricing:
Buy Avid BB7 discbrakes at Wiggle.com MSRP for the Avid BB7 discbrakes is £79.99 so they're affordably priced when compared to most of their hydraulic counterparts. Keep in mind...

Advantages: Superior build quailty and maintence free Disadvantages: Set up is time consuming
...I bought these brakes 6 months ago for my hard tail, I had looked at many other brakes like Hayes and Maguras but they didn't have the excellent quality and stopping power that the Hope M4's have. The brakes came pre-bled so it was just a case of bolting them on and aligning them. This can be a bit time consuming as the pads sit close to the rotor so they have to aligned well to stop any rubbing.
Once everything is set up these brakes are virtually maintenance free, only have to replace the pads ever so often. The system stops any air leaks very well, I haven't had to re bleed them in the 6 months i have had them.
Superb brakes that stop you in an instance and will not break however many times I crash and land on them....
