Please help ID year of avid juicy 5's
Hey everyone, I purchased these Avid Juicy 5 brakes on Ebay last weekend. Anyways I can not seem to figure out what year these are. The levers are the slide on type so I know they are not 2007 or up. Anyways the seller told me that when he purchased them he opted to upgrade to 165mm rotors instead of the stock 160mm ones, if that helps at all. Here is a picture of the brakes. Please help if you can.
Thanks a ton
Mike

The caliper and lever looks like my '06 set but the rotor looks like one of the newer Clean Sweep's, whereas my set came with the polygon rotors. I'll say this, I have Sevens on my Prophet and Fives on my Hardrock and the Fives seem to work every bit as well as the Sevens.
Hope that helps.
