I've used the Avid BB7 mechanical for over three years now & have been satisfied using these pads. The setup was both the stock 160mm rotor & 185mm rotor. Even in pouring rain the 160mm plus these Avid pads stop the bike with great modulation. Now I have one installed for the front for my trials bike which stops like a dream. Occasionally dirt and oil may require you to clean them by either soaking the pads in alcohol & sanding a thin layer. In either case, the pads last a long time and the break-in period is fast! (Just pour water on the rotor, go down the hill and brake hard couple times)
Product Used For: 2 or More Years
Product Strengths:Inexpensive but reliable in all condition including pouring rain
Product Weaknesses:Occasional cleaning required

These pads are pretty nice, there isn't much to set them apart from most other quality pads, except for the fact that they run surprisingly quiet when mated with a hayes rotor.
Product Used For: 1 Year
Product Strengths:Easy installation, Good Modulation
Product Weaknesses:Noisy when wet especially on avid rotors. They seem to run quieter and smoother on Hayes rotors.
My Bike:Giant AC1 Kona Hoss Deluxe
