Fit OEM bracket with no adjustment

Fit OEM bracket with no adjustment. Definitely stronger and smoother than the two piston original. Large fluid void in the caliper needs extra time and fluid to bleed but has top and bottom bleed options. I like the look of the new caliper through the wheel

Hi Nathan, thank you for sharing your experience! We're glad you found the caliper smooth and easy to fit, and that you like the look. Enjoy your upgraded braking system!
