Title: Rear calipers
Post by: Geomac901 on March 03, 2015, 07:38:40 pm

Hey guys. One of my rear caliper are sticking.. Not quite sure which one but I'll investigate tomorrow in more detail. This happened last year,close to 6 months ago and I serviced the rears with a seal kit for both calipers however I didn't renew the pistons.

Question is I'm looking for two replacements possibly upgrades.

There's two on flea Bay for 159 plus 90 on top of that which I'll get back when I get the old ones sent off.

Is this the best deal I'm gonna  get or do you guys know better?

Thanks

George

Look into refurbed calipers mate. I got a refurbed set for a decent price and you know that they have been completely renewed to a high standard. Most places offer a warrenty on their refurb parts and give you money back if you trade in your old calipers once you fit the new ones.

That's the link there. The calipers are refurbished and come with a 3yr warranty or 100,00km whatever first. And a refund of the 90 I'll pay for the old one calipers.
