calipers refurbed

Post by adam1985 » Fri Dec 08, 2017 11:09 am

Had a full set of four calipers refurbed by Bigg Red earlier in the year, still sitting im my garage as i haven't gotten around to fitting them and now its a bit cold and wet so will wait till the weather improves. Finish isn't 100% perfect and the reviews say the quality isnt as good as BCS but for £250 for 4 calipers cant really complain.

Bigg Red used to be really good, looks like their standards have dropped on the finish front.
