Another feature of these calipers is the butterfly pad retaining clip.

Squeeze together in the middle and you can change your pads in under 30 seconds.

The carbon look caliper is currently in production at Brembo, we have over 40 sets ordered and so far nearly half have been reserved against jobs already. If you were thinking of it being the one for you I'd get your name on my list sharpish
