Hi guys,

I was bleeding front brake today and heard a cracking noise only to find my piston has a lovely crack on it leaking fluid.

I've heard on here that parts from a cheaper caliper fit the xt m785 brakes? Anyone got any info on this? Would be greatly appreciated

From what I know shimano don't do spares as such. I intend on repairing these brakes using parts from a cheaper caliper.

Thanks guys!

A new xt caliper will be about £25 but any Shimano caliper should do the job.

I done exactly the same few weeks ago,I looked on Pinkbike and got a wrecked rear brake that had a near perfect calliper for 15quid posted.Quick swap over and bleed and it's running perfect
