Hey Folks,
Have just bought a new/used 105 5800 calliper and was told it is a front.
Have seen a rear advertised and want to buy it but can't tell the difference between front and the rear.
Is there a difference as they look interchangeable? Or am I missing something?
Thanks for the advice
Sean

At one point even the biggest moron is going to have something valuable to say and if your not listening, you'll miss it.

The length of the mount bolt differs. The front brake has a longer bolt.
I had a thought, but it got run over as it crossed my mind.

Champion!
Thanks for that. Knew there had to be something, it just wasn't glaringly obvious from the photos.
Appreciate the wisdom
