What do you guys think, other than weight, which would you go for and why? Metro Vented 4 pots or one of the after market Alloy vented 4 pots?

Funny you should say that Rob! I was speaking to them yesterday. Apparently after doing two runs (~40) the manufacturer worked out they where loosing money on them and would need to charge twice as much for the next batch. So SC stopped making them :(

 

They where only available as a 7.5"

Didn't realise that, what a shame, they looked to be a quality set of calipers
