    For the rears? Don't they just have a springy thing that the caliper kinda presses up against?

    The fronts have the actual metal clips.

    Oh. I was just about to post a thread asking for help with a rear brake binding issue I've got, wonder if the fact that mine doesn't have these fitted is causing the problem?
