these state that they are mountain bike calipers but look exactly the same as the ones on my giant rapid, does anyone know any different?

edit: sod it, bought some anyway, at that price would be mad not to

Yeah, they're road brakes. CRC must have just listed them incorrectly. Also ordered £110 worth of hydraulic brakes for £18, what a deal!

Yeah, looks like they're getting rid of the older stuff. The hydraulic brakes I ordered are a few models old, but I don't really mind that. Looking at them they're one of the models that requires no specialist kit to bleed either, so that's always good!

You can spend a lot of money in Royles :eek:

Found in the Yorkshire hills ...
Got mine today, for the money they are alright, would not want to do loads of miles with them, pad feels a bit thin.

Mine arrived - they fit fine, but the sides are ... erm ... quite see-through :blush:

I think I'll keep one and throw the others on eBay in the spring/summer.
