Buying brake bias valve

[jeremy fisher]

Hi all,

I have been looking into buying a brake bias valve for use with a Corsa brake pedal mod. I have seen a lot of the 'Werxtyle' ones around for a reasonable price, does anyone have any experience or info on the quality of these? Alternatively, can anyone recommend a good value option? Or should I just spend some decent money on it because its not worth skimping?

Thanks

Nick

Nick.

This is a good choice for you;

OK, I am biased as it's me selling it, but TILTON stuff is excellent, and well proven in motorsport. I have never heard of the brand you have been looking at.

Haha! I had actually spotted yours on eBay. I was watching another that went for over £60 so they hold their value quite well. I did think that the 'werxstyle' ones might not be great. Previous experience has taught me that some things can be cheap and ok, but certainly with motorsport you get what you pay for so I may have to budget a bit more.

No problem, cheap is definitely not worthwhile when it comes to brakes.

I have personally experienced the failure of an (unbranded) brake pressure valve, and I know several other racers who have had them pack up.
