I've got 5's, no idea what they have/havent got vs the others in the range.

I wouldn't buy them, the rear randomly decides to pull to the bars, bled it three times now and it's going back to the shop. This doesn't seem like an isolated case for Avids either.

Swaped it for some old but ace hayes 9's in the meantime.
