    Upset? Not so much, but definitely resigned to being given the bum's rush on many fronts in the lower mainland.

    As they say, first-world problems...

        Welcome to the forum.

        Just a heads up you can fit twinpot calipers to that bike... there is a link in my sig (I do have brackets on my shelf currently). You can likely secure parts for little more than the cost of rebuild kits I would think and the newer style caliper are still new enough that they arrive in usable condition out of the box in my experience.
