    Big brakes

    As above, is there any worthy brake upgrades other than 4 pots?

    Brembo Max discs with Ferrodo DS2500 pads are pretty much faultless.

    Now I've got this setup on the willy and at first I thought hurrah decent brakes but at the moment I don't have much confidence in them at all? I know my tyres are fooked but I didn't trust them before that either - changed everything on it apart from the master, new calipers, fluids and braided hoses.

    Might invest in 4 pots myself next year
