Is there a set percentage to have going to the rear brakes?Dunno

If I put my car on the mot brake tester and get the figures for the front brakes can I then just set up the bias valve with the rears on the rollers to a certain amount relating to the figure the fronts recorded?

Or is it a case of just testing it driving untill the rear wheels don't lock up under hard braking?

Personal preference really given its not a load compensator not a rising rate like earlier 306's and ZX's, some people want the rear to move under heavy braking so they can position the car.


There are minimum readings which will be on the computer for the test, so as long as it meets/exceeds that its all good.

I might have to do the bias valve setup to sort my compensator. I'd just want a 'safe' setting too
