Anyone know the weight of zs180 front brake calipers including the bracket? I don't have any lying around that I can weigh. From memory it's about 5kgsni think but want to know

Thanks in advance

My scales just said 6.4kg with pads and hose. I'll take them off later and try again.

Thanks drew! Amazing how heavy they are!

Yeah they are too heavy for the kitchen scales which I thought went to 5kg! Quite surprised at that. Might weigh my pug 406's.

OK maybe not the most accurate but that 6.4 with pads and hose has dropped to 5.3kg bare caliper.

Thanks for that drew, makes brake upgrades even more appealing when you consider a lot of the racing spec ones weigh 1.5-2kgs
