I think I'd hold out for an 880, they do still crop up 

[pickle]

Or go for an odyssey 2000 caliper?

[skippyg]

I would pickle,but I have a 901 rear brake

[region11]

I have a spare NOS 880, but its black not white.

[skippyg]

how much you want for it ,as I can paint it at work

[pickle]

I would pickle,but I have a 901 rear brake

Id ditch the 901 as well 

[skippyg]

whys that pickle?

[stevesredvxr]

I agree with rob pal.

Get some odyssey 2000 calipers. The 901 for the rear obstructs the rear frame stander.
Fit an oddy caliper underneath the rear stander and bobs your uncle.

As well as that they are more in keeping with a street beat and were fitted as standard to the complete two tones.

What steve says, I just don't think they look right on beats.

The rear brake should be fitted on the inside rather than outside and the 901 just doesn't work for me.

Sell ot and get a set of oddy 2000s

And the other bonus is you can usually pick em up for about 20 quid.

I was told earlier by someone I know that the brake had to be on the inside and itried and it doesn't fit,so ill have to be on the look out now for 2000's
