Default Caliper stuck again

It sounds like my caliper if stuck yet again. After having it fixed 3 weeks ago. I don't want to bother wasting time and money on having it repaired for the 2nd time if it's just gonna go bad again. Does anyone know a good replacment for OEM? Also, should I go with remanufactured calipers or brand new?

Can't, man. I'm still riding on stocks.

Looks like I'll just have to get some regular replacement calipers for now. Does it matter if I buy brand new or remanufactured?

remanufactured are basically used calipers that have been rebuilt with new parts. and new ones are...well, brand new. pretty much the same except the age of the calipers.
