Gary T Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Sorry if this has been covered before chaps. I need some exchange calipers type 16P, best place to find some good ones at a decent price. There must be some good ones out there. ( i would like to be able to order them and fit them as time is short) Thanks,Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted User Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Paddocks. They will send you new ones out and give you a exchange refund when you return your old units. Or try canleys? I am sure there are others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 just been looking into this myself - most of the usual Triumph Specialists will do a 16P recon exchange for around £45 or a remanuufacturered new outright for around £70 (ie no exchange reqd). Other non Triumph related companies such as Big Redd do exhange recon with a variety of different finishes for comparable prices. Not decided which way to go myself yet!

Gary T Posted May 4, 2010 Author Share Posted May 4, 2010 Thanks Guys,I seem to have arrived at the same place. either triumph specialist or Bigg Red. I like the look of the finish so went with bigg red. Called this morning they said they were in stock and could be sent out today. After my recent issues with parts from the usuall suspects, this all sounds a bit to easy.But with my glass over half full i will carry on and let you know the outcome, they did sound very good.Thanks for the replys,Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 hehe you beat me to it! I rang today and they said they had just sold their only pair on the shelf. Out of interest what finish were they. I've just boxed mine up for collection tomo, going for the black polymer finish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
