My experience is not limited but also very positive. Wet weather braking, pad life, speed of adjustments, and leverage are all better than the best rim brakes I've used (Ultegra 6600). I have a single BB7 on the front of my commuter and it's all I ever use to stop (rear brake is there but never gets used).
