Post GB: Lower's Brake Cylinder Brace



For a cheap, fit in 5 minutes lo-tech thing, this seems well worth it. The brake pedal feels much firmer and much more controllable.

It was about that from Unit-8. I only really got it as a "may as well have" as I was putting in the order for braces.

I tried to find a US ebay seller of Cusco stuff, but the only one that delivered internationally completely ignored me.

Obviously if you can do some basic metal work it'd be easy enough to make your own.

Only really noticed the difference once I took mine off, and tried some heavy braking tests.

I'll keep mine on for when I do track days, as I'm not that heavy on the brakes most of the time.
