Now do any front brake pads for PX fit right on the Euro 3 vespa or do you have to get just the right type to fit and work properly !! I have replaced mine with the Mossi brand and are not to sure if they are right !! And advice most welcome ✊

Tong tang?? Sounds like it’s made from camel sh*te…. Stick with Sip or standard, and just uprate your pads if you really need to. I’ve got some EBC (think it’s the carbon series??) waiting to go in the front, and either Ferodo or EBC for the rear, I know a bloke who knows a bloke at the factory… 😶🌫️🤓

Heng tong is the manufacturer for the 2011-2016 calipers, the pads are slightly bigger than on the older calipers. Wasp performance have the pads I think

Done done bloody done right pads arrived this morning and been busy sorting out the front brake caliper and pads fit a treat 👍yes you need different ones for our 2011+ PX or you end up with one's that are a bit too loose and upset the hole caliper so fingers crossed all's well still looking into a upgraded sip one just have to save up the penny's okay off for a spin to start beding them in just wish they would tell you this online sit PX pads are different !!

Update on the braking system issues Right the problems was not with the caliper ! But the master cylinder piston and leaver pushing the piston in under pressure at rest !! Now I read somewhere that someone alse where having problems too and read on what you have to do is file off about 1/8 of a inc till the piston is not under two much pressure at rest 👍 thanks you Gus's who ever it was saved me a packet best regards soulboy74 🏴
