UPDATED     ROAD CAR CALIPERS

The CP5200 and CP5100 range of calipers have been improved for 1998 with a paint finish that enhances the appearance and combats corrosion of the light aluminum casting changes. The new finish is impervious to brake fluids and the high brake temperatures produced by high performance road cars. The range also includes a new pad anti-rattle clip.
