"I did it to myself when I installed my first Avid BB7 using a cheater trick from MTB installations (lock the brake, fix the caliper and then adjust the pads) and it took me about an hour of fussin' and cussin' to realize that you really did need to follow Avid's printed instructions to the letter: crank the pads in against the caliper to get the caliper centered AND the proper 1/3 to 2/3 bias before fixing the caliper and then back off both the inner and outer pads by just a couple clicks. "

This warrants further investigation, I am not sure how they did the set up.

Just checked on the bike now has all new style housing vs previous jagwire, feel has improved quite a bit. Caliper is a 2007 BB7 road. Brake Power booster has not arrived yet.
