Brake Bias Mechanism

How many of us have used a Brake Bias Mechanism?

Hopefully - there should be some option for everyone...

I have a Fiat Uno bias valve, at the moment it is screwed all the way in (no bias) and the rear wheels do lock up before the fronts - just.

I will set it best I can before the SVA and then fit a roll pin at the SVA itself once the examiner is satisfied





If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

I haven't used either a valve or a mechanical system, and I have a CEC which answer should I give?

By the way my brakes seem pretty good

Ive used a Sierra master cylinder m16 callipers and 3/4 rear cylinders , the brake balance is fine . i had no SVA problem and find that the fronts always lock up first.

I have a std Luego pedal box. witha bias bar and two cylinders.

Whats CEC and BEC?. I though BEC was Bike Engined Car.

CEC no bias valve but as I am only using Escort 8" Mk1 drums with 0.7" wheel cylinders I don't expect any problems -- if I do I will just fit smaller 0.625" wheel cylnders
