Help finding brake caliper

Long time since I last posted. Looking for help finding a front brake caliper. I had links to it on taobao but they no longer work. I did find the complete front brake system but I only need the caliper and pads. Any help would be appreciated! If anyone knows where I can get one in the U.S. that would be even better.

Here is a picture from an old thread showing the one i need.

I've been looking for three days on taobao and everywhere else with no luck.

Thanks,
Dave

This looks like the one humanbeing posted.

He also mentioned Hyosung. This looks like another match.

THANKS GUYS!

I had found the pads but still couldn't find the caliper.

Geesh, I thought I had this taobao stuff down. I had links saved for all the parts I was looking for and none of them are working now. They must have expired or moved, or i'm just getting more stupider.lol

If I can't find them on my own, I may ask for a little more guidance.

Trying to finish getting my sons bike back in shape so we can ride together this spring. I just picked up a like new Roketa with 39 miles on it!

If your caliper is frozen, it might be a good idea to just get the whole works. In my opinion frozen calipers mostly come from bad fluid causing corrosion. I have replaced calipers frozen and not the master only to find out the master will not pump the new fluid.

I bought a new master cylinder/line last year when I got the bike because they were damaged. I was hoping the caliper was still good but it turned out to be messed up too. Ironically, at that time I could find the caliper everywhere I looked and had to hunt for the master cylinder/line. This year its the opposite. lol

Hi!!
I somehow found this thread! I also need this front brake caliper, because mu caliper rubber is disintegrated. Did you managed to find and get a new brake caliper, and where? Thanks!

Thanks!
I found a manual for Hyosung GA125 F, which seems to have same caliper, pads, bolts and functional design. I found a part of the manual about front caliper assembly. Here I put out some images which (I hope) can help in finding pin boots (thanks Jerry for telling me how are they called in English).
In the pics can be seen small rubber pieces, marked as 1 and 2, which should be what I am looking for, right? On bottom pic with question mark is one of the boots in its location for both pins, right?
I really don't remember how my boots looked like.
