Hi all!

Just wanted to share something with you folks.

You know when you go down the hill at high speed and see trafic ahead, so you start to smoothly apply the brakes, but when you get to it, your brakes are so hot they just won't work?

I just switched the normal front discs to vented ones (from a Ph 1 valver), and solved the problem.

As far as I know, all 1.4 energys with rear drum brakes have this problem. At least, those who don't have a pair of vented discs.

Really recomend it.

Cheers!

Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy
