What are the defects?

Due to road treatment conditions, such as aggressive salt types or significant usage, surface corrosion could occur within the un-anodised brake caliper piston bore.

What are the hazards?

Corrosion on the surface of the brake caliper could impair the piston’s clearance within the bore, affecting brake performance and increasing the risk of an accident and serious injury or death to the rider and other road users.
