Default Rear calipers

When I had the rear calipers replaced in October last year, I kept the original ones, saved some pennies and had them refurbished over Xmas by The Brake Caliper Specialists (who did my front ones some time ago).

Just got them back (see attached photos). Nice!

So, when I get them fitted, I'll have a pair of rear calipers, with carriers, that have done less than 4,000 miles, surplus to requirements, if anyone's interested. They're hand-painted red, but I'm sure that will strip off if it's not to your taste. Or you could get them painted properly at BCS.

PM me if you're interested.
