Default Weight of 2pot calipers, discs and pads

Need to arrange collection of this parcel and have no way of weighing it

Total stab in the dark, how heavy are they?

Absolute doddle to send, just do it online, interparcel, parcelmonkey, parcel2go, etc and fudge the figures. Simple.

lol, I was gonna re-edit my guess to 20kg+ -- I thought 10kg was inadequate.

Front Brembo's with discs and pads are, from memory, around 40kg.

I don't doubt it Mick.

I've just bought the 330mm K-Sport kit and, Jeeeeesus, the weight of the discs/bells!

The 8-pot calipers though, given their huge size, are surprisingly 'light' (due to the materials used).
