is there any issue with using "Pattern part" piston sets or should i stick with OEM?
 
A set if pistons and seals for a front caliper is 70-80 on ebay, but not sure what OEM is, looking at fowlers...

That was R.E.M.(Rapid Eye Movement) not OEM :rolleyes

No no you are thinking of OMD-------------------showing my age now ( orchestral maneuvers in the dark )  :guitar anola gay should of stayed at home yesterday  :guitar   and that lot


Enola Gay

Foc -------------------- for 25years ive been singing anola gay

Enola Gay was the nickname of the bomber aircraft that dropped the first ever atomic bomb on Hiroshima.
It was actually the pilots mothers name.

So my Rear Caliper arrived today!!!  :b :b :b :b

Looks nice!

Pistons are ok by the looks of it but it will be sent off with the front and their new pistons/seals to powerhouse for a service then will be fitting...!!!!

Total cost 51£
