How in the world would nylon hold it's integrity against the heat generated by braking?
Think about how accurate that piston has to be to seal with a o-ring and think of the heat that the brake caliper generates.
Maybe I am off my rocker but I think he misspoke or took too many tokes from the bowel they were passing around while he was typing that up.
I know they use nylon pistons in mastercylnders but not in calipers that I am aware of.
They use this in cycle calipers its brittle I know cos I broke one.
