    Just ask, what do you need to know? Plenty of Spoon caliper owners on board.

      when using OEM pads does the pad sit perfect or fit?, or it moves a bit when driving

          I dunno about spoon calipers but the pad moves slightly. When u reverse and touch the brake the pad clicks back slightly then once you drive forward the pad clicks forward again....

            Yes, the pad does move around a bit. Hence when you turn your steering wheel, you'd hear the pads very distinctively. Isolated characteristic to the twin-pot setup only. No such character on the monoblock.

                u mean doesnt do it?

                Its prolly just the design of the calipers, nothing you can really do about it

                    Yes, design of the brake pad holder - The black Nissin square piece is different on the monoblock and twin block. It isn't an issue however, otherwise Spoon would've revised the design if necessary.

                      The pads clunk around a bit at first, but I don't hear it anymore. I guess they just need time to bed in and settle.

                      Not sure if you mentioned it before, but which rotors are you using?

                      faijai: rg + awp = gg
