Hi,
Does anyone know if the Wemoto and DSS replacement brake caliper are the same item or different / better / worse etc.
Looking to replace the existing one and Wemoto is cheaper so wondered in there was a difference.

Cheers,
Andy

I have the DSS caliper, hoses and and master cylinder assembly on my bike....no complaints!

JezzaPeach:
Same here. Both master and caliper aftermarket. Master had a bolt under which I replaced with the standard flat plate they sell. It keeps a rubber tube ‘buffer’ in place.
EBC semi sintered pads took a while to bed in but are now very good, well worth the money. Adjusted tight and backed off so the wheel only drags very slightly, almost spinning freely after lever applied, then again after bedded in.

AndyD:
Thanks all,
Looks like the way to go as the original caliper I've got is soaking in oil to hopefully loosen a broken bleed nipple - might be a longer term bit of work to get it back working.
I also just wondered if the one from Wemoto is the same caliper as it's a chunk cheaper than DS - I guess they both use the same manufacturer for various replacement parts and hoped maybe that applied to the caliper so i could save a few pounds

Cheers,
Andy

Bryanj:
I have repair kits for the bleed nipple, send me a pm for details
