Pin Calipers Pictures?

Here's a quick picture I already have of some pin type calipers.

As far as the pads flying out, nothing holds the pads into a set of slider calipers but a couple of little tabs. Push the piston all the way back and they fall out.

The pins are also what the caliper slides on, vs the caliper bracket like the slider calipers. Probably less likely to get jammed up like the sliders types occasionally do.

I have heard that the pin type calipers aren't as "strong" as the sliders from some of the old timers, but I'm not really sure I see how. Sure, the pins aren't as strong as the caliper bracket, but all that holds the calipers on to the slider brackets is a little bolt and clip, so I dunno. Plus, unlike the slider type calipers, if the pins wear out you can change them. If the slider area of the caliper bracket gets damaged on the slider types, its harder to fix.

For the calipers, I try to get metal pistons if possible. A lot of stuff now uses the phenolic pistons, and I'm not a fan. They don't rust, but they don't last either. I'd skip the loaded calipers, you don't get as good of a pad selection. I'd pick out a nice set of semi-metallic pads.
