SRAM 7.0 Brakes - Avid 1.9 Levers
Ok. I admit it. I've been away from biking for quite a while. So the bike does not have V's on it. And, I've actually never ridden anything but Cantis for brakes (a brief affair with a under the frame U-brake - let's not mention it). So, in the wonderful world of closeouts, I justified the purchase of SRAM 7.0 brakes ($7) and Avid 1.9 levers ($15). Can't be worse than the LX cantilevers on the bike now - that's the theory. So... any opinions on either of those products? Anybody used/have them? I'm just waiting for them to arrive in the mail.

I think you'll be much better off, as long as they're compatible (I'm sure they are...). I have avid single digit's and arch rival 4.0's and love them. I think Sram makes some pretty tuff stuff too!
Glad your getting back into it
Good Luck!
