888 Calipers

Discussion in '851 / 888' started by farmster, Jan 20, 2018.

  1. After a bit of over zealous cleaning this afternoon I managed to rub through the plating on the inside of the caliper, where the brake dust hadn’t been cleaned off before! Very annoyed with myself. Does anybody know who reburbishes them? Don’t want new pistons etc just the outside of the calipers refinished. Thanks in advance Paul
     
  2. I've used a company before called big red. Very good as they offer a variety of different finishes .
     
  3. @bettes should be a font of knowledge on this I think :thinkingface:
     
  4. There's also the option of new ones.... be more than a refurb I guess, but you can still get them for a couple of hundred a side including pads.

  5. Sorry, can’t remember the name of the company now. They’re in Sheffield and do the full rebuild and caliper finishes. Think they used to advertise on eBay.
     
  6. They want £79 per caliper which includes seals but not pistons & another £15 because they are Brembo :neutral:
    A tenner to post them there
    And £7.50 each 1 to post them back !
    So the New 1s are looking more inviting &
    Sell the old 1s
    They aren’t that bad really I’m just being too fussy if I’m honest :D
     
  7. Not a full recon just seals & replating
    The 1’s on the post above
     
  8. Are they the pair for my bike ???
     
  9. That's exactly what they are...
