I have a set of BB7s with spare pads and a spare calliper and some bits.

They are free to whoever comes up with the best reason why they should have them.

Because

1) I want / need / love . . them.

2) I want / need / love . . you.

3) They're free.

In all seriousness, because I have to replace a completely ****** set.

Thx Dave.

My current, sadly now deceased, set of BB7s lasted for fifteen years but the Baja and Peru Divides were just too much for them. Sand and mud in Mexico and some of the longest, steepest, sustained descents I've ever encountered, in Peru, cooked them beyond any hope of repair.

I received the brakes from Dave this morning, but unfortunately they're not suitable for me.

These calipers are the BB7 ROAD version.

If you want them, send me a PM with your address.

Donation to BB to cover my postage cost of £3 would be appreciated. If you're feeling generous, a further £3 to cover Dave's wouldn't be amiss ;-)
