Default Curvy rear caliper

Does anyone have a rear caliper they wouldn't mind selling fairly cheap? Aesthetics no issue, don't care if it's scratched or anything but I need one WITHOUT stuck pad pins, WITHOUT stuck pistons (even if the seals need replacing) and WITHOUT stuck joining bolts!

Sorry if it seems a bit snobbish but I've been struggling with both my own and another caliper from an orger and they are both impossible to split, and have one free and one stuck piston. I don't have access to the kind of tools required to get them open, so I'm in need of one that I can just put my new pads straight into!

Many thanks

I'll have a caliper coming in at some point this week for refurb if Husky hasn't got any kicking around

Do you have a rough idea how much you'd want for it? I don't mind cleaning it up, just don't have the tools to get a stuck one apart. Typical isn't it, finally got some decent sunshine & the bike's stuck

I'll strip it, clean it and chuck in the new bolts for 32 quid. If I've got any pads spare I'll put them in the box

How does that sound?
