I can't believe it is hard to knock off a caliper/bbk: Cast it, machine it, paint it. Now will the casting metallurgy and quality be up to par with BB/AP/ST? Very Doubtful. How about the slides, pistons, seals, friction disks, lines, bleeders, etc? VERY unlikely.
No way is any BBK manufacturer allowing the QC rejects to be sold on alibaba with them knowing about it. There is also no reason why they would put up with this. As said above they have a BBk for basically every car out there. Do you really think they customized every caliper so the piston sizes are correct so your brake bias and ABS are going to work correctly?
The chance they are the knock offs are the same and OEM BBK is about 5%
Do you wear knock off jordans and a folex? If so a knock off BBK might be for you!
I would love to know what an insurance company would do if they could determine the caliper/bbk caused the accident? They are notorious for trying to get out of paying $$$.
