I'm refurbishing my rear beam and given the condition of my rear brake compensator I'm thinking about removing it completly. My thoughts were to run a manual in car brake bias to adjust the front back split.

Has anyone removed their brake compensator? Good idea?

yes removed compensator and works fine . i prefer using the bias twist knob adjustment type , as can get finer adjustment compared to lever type bias adjuster

Great. I'm planning on going to the twist knob type too.

Twangy - where have you fitted the adjuster in the car? Pictures would be good.
