Blue / Gold Spot Calipers

Post by Sea Sick Steve » Wed Mar 10, 2021 7:49 am

Hey All
Is there really any braking advantage to be gained using Blue / Gold Spot Calipers
over the standard TRX ones ?
Or is it more for show ?
Cheers

Hi Sea Sick Steve!

First, welcome to the forum - a little introduction would be nice.

For me, coming from a CX 500 EURO in 2005, the stock TRX calipers were a huge improvement at that time.

Then, the blue or gold or silver spots are an improvement in comparison to the stock TRX calipers.

Improved greets from Munich!

Make sure you get the matching master cylinder to fully enjoy the benefits of blue spots and fitted braided lines at the same time if not done already. A search on this forum will give you loads of info on this mod :wink:
