has anyone found a good aftermarket caliper? or is there still help for mine? the bracket slide is seized up and has been for some time now. they haven't worked well at all. my brakes start to fade when the pads are only half used up! What can i do to get these thing in perfect shape again? Thanks

If it's only the pins, just get new ones. I don't think i know what a bracket slide is.:confused:

If they are seized and u havent taken them out to grease them to try to fix it, then grease em. Im not sure about your fading problem though. For some reason my brakes work better at the end of a race than the beginning:confused:

maybe its because there warmed up a lil bit? that would be my best guess
