Dia-Compe old school BMX reissue MX1000 MX 1000 bicycle brake caliper SILVER

Description

Dia-Compe MX1000 rear BMX brake caliper
Color: SILVER ANODIZED
Model: MX1000
Approximate Reach: 73mm - 92mm
Application:
This caliper is set up for REAR use. However, a longer FRONT pivot bolt and appropriate shallow half moon washers are included so you can convert this to front use if you desire. Need a FRONT and REAR caliper? Then order 2 of these calipers and convert one with the parts included. However, the quick release is riveted on therefore brake cable routing must come from above (therefore, this cannot be used with a Potts Mod hollow stem bolt in front).
Features: Quick release lever, Dia-Compe thumb adjuster
Brake pads: Dia-Compe salmon compound retro block pads (an aggressive ferrous oxide compound similar to Mathauser)
Mounting hardware included
The "MX" is laser engraved into the anodizing.
NOTE: These are brand new production calipers direct from Dia-Compe - these are not NOS nor are they made from the original MX1000 tooling (the original tooling is long gone).
IMPORTANT: There is no substitute for MEASURING your bike before ordering. While there are some rule of thumb standard for bikes from a specific era, there are no absolutes.  Save yourself time and money and MEASURE first, order once.
