df1 Posted May 21, 2021 Posted May 21, 2021 Can anyone tell me if there is a replacement for the Brake calipers that I've been told are no longer made? Need to find a solution for the shop that suggested there might be used ones out there. Any help much appreciated. Would need specific part numbers or what specifically fits Thanks David
docc Posted May 21, 2021 Posted May 21, 2021 A member very recently posted a direct replacement made by Grimeca. Let me see if I can find it.....

Scud Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 They are easy to rebuild. I have a couple very nice used ones if needed. And as others noted, rebuild kits are (or at least were recently) available.
R.I.P. Mikko Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 With a seal kit and these pistons, anyone's rear caliper can be rebuilt and work better then new. BREMBO ANODIZED PISTON SET F05 CALIPER V11 SPORT 1
df1 Posted May 22, 2021 Author Posted May 22, 2021 Hi. The caliper seized closed. Bike is at shop as I don’t wrench, they can’t find replacement.
R.I.P. Mikko Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 Order that seal kit and those pistons, they should be able to rebuild yours. That piston kit is upgraded to prevent seizure, total parts cost about $65 plus labor. You'd still be money ahead vs buying a new one and waiting 2 months. plus, you keep your original caliper which would make @docc pleased..... 1 1
