Unless you really really lucky and happen to find a really nice pair used, its better to bite the bullet and buy a new pair... Brickwerks or brakes international...

Brakes are not worth skimping on...

I tried refurbing mine then thought Life is way to short and bought a pair from Mr Baxter they are just superb and worth every penny.
To be honest even the secondhand ones I saw on ebay were only half the price for the new ones and would need work doing to them.

Baxters its the way forward.

Cheers
