Update: got the final production version of the rear caliper brackets! Hard coat anodized! And switched to all titanium hardware.

Where did you get the banjo bolts for the calipers? The safety wire holes remind me of prepping bikes for road racing way back in the day, but we had to wire everything including the caliper mount bolts. I wouldn't call drilling Ti bolts for safety wire a fun adventure at all.

Any thoughts on brake pad availability for the GS/RC calipers? Is it better than the IS F calipers?
