Default Re: No more break problems!!!!

I had had my ATV for the breaks set down to 13% and even then, the car would break away. Now I've got it set at 50% and as long as I'm sensible about where and when I break, I can really hit those breaks leading up to a corner.

Now I just have to get my setup sorted out a bit better.

This is where the fun begins :-)

Cheers, Mark.
Mark, glad things are working out for you If you're still breaking traction when braking on a straight line, try and experiment with reducing the rear droop (i.e. say from +6 to +7) till the setup that works best. Patience is the key
