【brembo】P2-RS84 Rear Brake Caliper 84mm Review
The P2 rear brake caliper offers outstanding braking performance
About quality and texture - The P2 rear brake caliper from Brembo is made from cast aluminium with a black anodized surface finish and includes brake pads, the quality from the overall fit and finish is perfect. About the feeling of use - The P2 rear brake caliper offers outstanding braking performance with it's larger piston diameter and higher quality brake pads, while the look is also improved with the subtle black colour caliper. Products to buy together - The Honda Grom is an inexpensive motorcycle with a lot of low quality parts from the factory, so the purchasing of other high quality parts like this P2 rear brake caliper from Brembo would be perfect but the essential product to purchase to complete the installation is a rear brake bracket to allow for the mounting of the rear brake caliper. Difficulty of installation - The installation of the P2 rear brake caliper is an intermediate task that took 0.7 of an hour to complete. Some mechanical aptitude, knowledge on disassembling the Honda Grom and the use of basic hand tools is what is required to secure the P2 rear brake caliper to the bracket and bleed the brake caliper. Cost performance and comparison with other products - I find the cost of all the products Brembo sell to be higher then what most other companies sell their products for and the P2 rear brake caliper is no different, but this is due to the high quality materials used and the consistent high quality finish of their products. About shipping and packaging - With there being no significant cost difference between sea freight and EMS for the P2 rear brake caliper, I chose EMS for an earlier arrival dates. The part was extremely well protected while being covered in bubble wrap and surrounded with air pillows in a sturdy cardboard box. Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing - Webike Japan is the first place I look to for all my motorcycle needs. From service parts to performance products and even motorcycle gear and apparel, Webike always seem to satisfy my needs with their variety, availability and pricing.

I aligned it like the front and rear of a grom jc92.
With OEMMASTER, I don't think the performance can be fully used.
I think the radipon needs to be replaced.

Brembo P2 Black 32mm piston Caliper
I was in the market for a new rear cliper and decided to go for Brembo as they are by far, the best you can get. This was the other purchase as I was unsure whether to go for the 32mm or 34mm piton size so bought both anyway. I already had a cnc bracket to use so I could make the rear caliper an under slung one. This looks really cool when you do it right. Webike had a sale on the Brembo calipers when I checked sp I added both to my basket. Using EMS and combining a few other items, the cost was really good and better than other couriers. All was packed really well and nothing got any damage in transit. When I unpacked this caliper, it was well padded in it's own box. The paint is superb on the cast caliper. All the parts move freely and it even had a set of standard pads installed. As I also purchased gthe 34mm piston P2 caliper, I did try both for fitment. I decided to stick with the 34mm caliper but this one will be going on another custom bike for the under slung look. Brilliant. Thanks Webike, keep up with the great sales on top brands. View detail
New Crab with hard work attached
The new brembo Crab was installed with a lot of effort, please refer to the Impression on Caliper support to find out why. Anyway, I could finally install the new Crab. However, the performance was not as good as I expected, although I expected it to be more effective. It may be due to the compatibility with the Master Cylinder. Also, since the Caliper was installed using the Support, the rotor and pad are not the same size, and there is a part of the pad that does not hit the rotor. This is an issue for the future.
I am very satisfied with the Visual aspect.

Front brake caliper replacement
The NORMAL front brake does not work well. I decided to replace the caliper. I bought a Crab type Brembo because I wanted a brake that would work well even with two people on it. Before the bite appeared, I was not sure if it would work better than before or not... The front brake also works well now.
I thought maybe the MASTERCylinder capacity was not enough? I thought it might not have enough capacity, but it is not like that at all, and works well as OEM.
