To me, the PM caliper that came with my S1 is thing of sheer beauty, but it has the rug pulled from underneath it by the lack of sintered pads...

To make up for the lack of bite of organic pads, has anyone mated the PM caliper to the later tuber (or even XB) master cylinder (1/2" bore)? Should give you a good 50% more pressure for the same squeeze...

Wow, are these the first time we have seen HH pads for a PM front caliper?

OK, so they are in the states, but I am sure Busters will get them for you...

Part number FDB847ST...

Just so's you know, I stock the unobtainium PM caliper overhaul kits ie. pistons and seals......if you're using the devils spawn that is DOT5, you're gonna need these eventually :)
