Default Re: Front right caliper

As far as I'm aware, they're the same unit across the curvy and pointy range. (But that's only based on basic visual inspection rather than anything more scientific.)

But can you not just replace the pistons & seals in your existing caliper after carefully using some fine emery cloth or similar to de-burr the edges? As long as the main bore itself is clean and smooth, it should seal up fine with new pistons and seals.
