STANDARDISATION of CHASSIS PARTS I understand, this is less leverage to rear brakes from pedal, is less direct braking and more servo. I rather doubt if more servo is wise, one often thinks our brakes are dangerously effective because they require so much less pedal pressure to operate than most other makes. FHR.
