    Hello ,I need to find some place where I can buy the shaft rubber boots that come with the caliper(both) that let the caliper float and move slightly.

    I´m looking for the usual model that come with all chinese mx bikes.

    Any idea?

    You are talking about the brakes right?

    The rubber seal may be hard to find. It may be easier to fin the whole caliper.

    Again, any photos or specs on it would be nice. There are so many different types!

    txm,
    Can you get some measurements off of it? I have a Honda caliper in the garage that I can check to. Is the one you have ripped? If not you can "recondition" it by soaking in in something like Armor-all to soften it up.

    Well ,I managed to find a similar rubber boot but its not the same really.
    I think it might work.

    I attached a bitmap with the measures I took with my caliper that it has a 1/2 mm error ! but more or less it helps to get the idea.

    bye bye
