R1 front brake calipers

Does anyone know if later gold centre R1 brake calipers are a direct fit. I know R1 and Faser calipers are interchangeable.

Calipers are some distance away so can't do a mock up.

Cheers

Hi mate,

Yep, pretty sure that the Gold Sports are the same as the blue spots which fit the TRX, just with different anodising in gold to the piston outer bits.

Have a search on here for gold spots, you may find a pic of a bike with them on.

Dave.

Oh, and add your LOCATION to your info section so we know where in the world you are :D
