Avid BB7 SL Road Disc Brake Info
The Avid BB7 SL Road Disc Brake is a mechanical disc caliper built for road and gravel riders who want reliable stopping power without the weight penalty. Constructed from forged two-piece aluminum and finished in a distinctive Falcon Grey anodize, it strips back the hardware to save grams where it counts — 170g caliper-only weight puts it firmly in race-day territory.
What separates the BB7 SL from a standard mechanical disc is the adjustment system. Dual-knob pad adjustment lets you dial in both inboard and outboard pad position independently, while the Tri-Align Caliper Positioning System simplifies mount alignment during installation. Aluminum-backed organic pads provide consistent modulation across the 160mm HS1 rotor, whether you're managing speed on a long descent or scrubbing pace before a technical corner.
