Re: 10.1 brake question



So, the summary is:
You can upgrade to 10.1 front brakes without upgrading the MC.
You can upgrade to rear discs without upgrading the MC.
If you upgrade both you have to upgrade the MC.
Is this right?

On a side note, unless the pedal leverage ratio and front and rear
piston sizes are the same between the A1's and A2's quoting A2 info may
not be relevant.
