Hi all just about to order a repair kit for my front master cylinder, all the kits listed for the nc30 are 12.70mm OD. But my road bike one is stamped 5/8. And this one is stamped 14? Any ideas ?

14mm is std NC30 m/c size
5/8 is better used on the lager Nissin calipers, or the brembos
not sure where the 12.7 is - I have not replaced these seals on my bike, which is a surprise to me.lol

Maybe it's the internal diameter of the 14mm seal?

Looking at the dimensions listed here, I wonder if it's actually the diameter of piston? You'd need some clearance between the piston and the bore to allow for the seal....
