Title: New Front Brake Seals
Post by: philshaq on 02 March 2013, 08:04:32 pm

Hi guys,


I'm gearing up for a bit of time in the car in mid march to early april and i've got a shopping list of stuff to sort out, first on the list is rebuilding the front brakes as they need doing.


I left the bike standing over Christmas for two weeks (when the snow came) and the brakes seized up, i managed to get them back to working order but they need the seals replacing and a good clean, so im going to take them off in a couple of weeks, order some braided lines and new seals.


The question I have is if anyone has purchased seals off ebay (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/150910673906?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/150910673906?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649))? They seem like really good value, but I don't want to buy a cheap pattern part that won't fit and I won't be able to return.


As always, comments appreciated!


thanks

Go with original seals, they will definitely be better quality, so may as well do the job right from the start.
