A couple of weeks ago I posted inquiries about Avid BB brakes and set-up tips. Thanks to the folks who responded, as there were several concise and time-saving tips included. I spent a few minutes tweaking the brake set-up using these tips, and had my first ride with them this weekend.
They don't squeal, they are great in the wet, and they don't require finger/forearm strength. My complaint? My hands got a little chilled since they weren't constantly pumping both brakes and blood during the ride! I can live with that ;-)

Good stuff, Bill
