Most of you probably know the feeling of just that one part missing for your build. In my case this time, it's the TRP R960 in orange.

The only two sightings were on
TRP's web page http://www.trpbrakes.com/category.php?p ... &catid=183
Iron Cycles Tumblr http://ironcycles.tumblr.com/post/44311 ... g-on-a-new

Any leads for EU availability would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Stocking a part in that color is risky for most shops due to general demand.
This is probably a special order item for you.
Contact TRP directly about retailers in the EU that can order it for you.
Or, hey, forum members from Holland, has anyone seen this in a local shop? Help our man out here!

Yes I sent out a few inquiries at the time of posting here. TRP USA just got back to me saying the R960 was discontinued and they couldn't do anything (because tyre and rim width restrictions). The silver lining is that I'll not be wasting money buying those old models at MSRP, I suppose. Shall be looking into painting some more modern calipers myself then.
