I am interested in alternatives to BB7 Road discs, when used for year round daily commuting work, please.
The BB7s are great brakes when set up correctly, but I’ve found their ability to stand up to the abuse of regular commuting is a bit disappointing. They seem to start corroding and getting sticky very quickly after a typical winter season of rain, salt, grit and snow. I’m wondering if any of the alternatives are a bit more tolerant of road crud and would require less tweaking to keep them running.
I’m aware of the Shimano 505s and Tektro Lyras. Does anyone have direct experience of how these compare to the BB7s for performance and maintenance, and particularly how they stand up to daily all weather commuting?
