Brake calipers don't wear out.
Brake pads wear out. M/C's wear out. Ever take one a part? The are rubber "cups" or seals that move inside the m/c. They wear out by rubbing on the inside walls of the m/c. Much like piston rings in a cylinder. Unless you hone the m/c AND replace the seals your rebuild will not be as good as a new one. |
