I would be interested in knowing what the members who have fitted the system think of it?

Cheers

It's the same as the gen3 conversion.

The key improvement was on braking efficiency it took my gen3 which was a borderline pass on the machine to a good strong reading.

I have 33 inch tyres so the rotational inertia of the tyre is high. This killed the braking so the disks brought it back
