Will last a year of daily use. durable. doesn't squeak (after break in period). good price. I am a repeat user. The softer version is good too. quieter. but this lasts twice as long. good wet/mud dry.

Fit perfectly with no problems!, February 26, 2011
By Sean T. Dahlberg

Took out my old pads and put these in with no problem. They fit just right and I used little effort to push them and hear the "click". Easiest if you use a pair of pliers. I have Avid Juicy 7's.

 Worth the money, October 26, 2010
By Snoopy's Dad (FLIPPIN, AR, US)

I got into the bad habit of buying cheap pads for my Juicy 7's. Don't do that. All of them I tried were noisy, rough, and did not last very long at all. Worth the money to buy the Avid pads. I bet there are better pads out there than Avid's, but at least these fit right and will be on my bike for a while.

Longer lasting..., October 25, 2010
By Connie (San Jose, CA United States)
|

I've tried both the organic and the metalic (sintered) pads. My LBS sold me on the organic pads at one point because they are more quiet. But, after trying the organic for two full sets, I realized the metalic/sintered last twice as long as the organic, maybe longer. I don't have a problem with the metalic pads being noisey unless they are wet after a stream crossing or in need of replacing.
With the organic, I found myself having to do trail side replacement on more than one occasion, as the pad life snuck up on me rather quickly. Not what I want to be doing in the middle of a long sweet singletrack decent when my friends are waiting at the bottom! Grrrr
Buy the sintered pads to save yourself time and money!

Works well after a short break-in period, February 10, 2012
By DC

There are two versions, and reviews from mtn bikers online generally indicate preference for the sintered version. It's easy to replace the pads on the bike. These initially didn't grip the disk so well during the first mile or so of riding. But after, the do grip well. I recommend these pads.
I have two bikes. My BB7 mechanical disk brakes feel like they have as much stopping power as the SRAM XO hydraulic disk brakes on my other bike. Thumbs up.

Perfect., February 8, 2012
By B. King (Bristol, VT)

These last me over 8,000 miles before I need to replace them, and they work in all weather from freezing rain to muddy swamps. Be sure to adjust your inner piston adjuster two clicks clockwise (with a Torx wrench) for every 1 click of the outside adjuster, for even pad wear and best stopping power.

Very good price., December 7, 2011

These pads took about a ride to break in. They were the cheapest I could find and they seem to be lasting better than I expected.

Brake Pad Review, October 24, 2011
By Roo

awesome pads overall - little noisy when cold, but once some heat is built up, the stopping power is awesome and noise is reduced. i'll continue to use the pads for awhile to come!

Good pads, good price., September 27, 2011
By heywood Jablome (SLC, Ut)
|

Good brake pad for avid juicy 7 at a good price. They squeal a bit when they get dusty (after a big climb to the DH transition), but still have good stopping power. I don't know about the longevity, but still better than aftermarket brake pads (I bought disco brakes & they dragged from the start, can't recommend them even at a low pricepoint).

These fit PROMAX HORNET hydraulic brakes., July 12, 2011
By Chris Jackson (Southern Maryland)
|
|
Bought these to replace the pads in my Promax Hornet disc brake pads which came stock on my 2011 Gary Fisher Montare. Not only did they fit perfectly, they resolved my brake slippage and vibration issues without question. Great product but expensive for what they are, hence the 4 star rating.

Great stopping power!, April 16, 2012
By xalos1
|
|
First time using "sintered" pads, replaced my ceramic ones and so far I am happy. Installation was simply and quick, the stopping power is superb. Been riding with these for 3 weeks now and I like the response.
The only small complaint is that they are a little noisy when dirty or wet. They were noisier the 2nd week, the more I use them the quieter they get.
Will definitely buy them again!
