I’m seeing quite a few calipers for sale lately, around £80 for a pair.
Anyone got any experience with these? Seem very cheap to me.

I have been using the Minispares own brand calipers for years, never had any sort of an issue.

The last sample I received of these worryingly cheap calipers the brake pads didn't fit, same for the cheap hubs, dowels holes were too big and the caliper didn't fit...

Last year I had some problems with the left hand caliper supplied by mini spares . The problem was no fluid would bleed out . They were aware of the problem . As I say this was probably a year ago now . … Shirley
