Sorry I can’t see anything recent about this, should I attempt the o ring repair or are any of the cheaper new generation flat mount shimano better. Alternatively what is the Magura option, I know Hope do one.
Thanks from everyone within a mile radious of my stupid brakes.

Or where do I get the o rings from.

I replaced my 105 level leaky flat mount rear caliper with a Hope RX4. Been great since. It doesn’t feel any better or any worse than the Shimano one - but if it doesn’t leak it’s an improvement!

Thanks Joe, I think it’s the best option. Although tempted to stick tiagra ones on.
For the two years they worked the Shimano were amazing.

Seem to be a lot of new take offs on ebay at times. I suspect that people have bought a groupset for older bikes and can't use the flat mount calipers.
