What source do you have for this assertion? I have not thuroughly researched the Wilwoods, but they appear to be the same Superlite 6s I have on my Stealth for the fronts, and I'm not sure which 4 pots for the rear? The 6 pots are quite impressive IMHO. Is this just a dust sheild issue, or is there imperical data out there on the Wilwoods? |
The Wilwoods flex like Hanz and Franz under heavy pressure. Causes poor pedal feel. I had only heard this as a rumor until recently, but then a customer came into S-Squared complaining of poor pedal feel. 3 liters of bleeding later, it still felt like crap. Finally, during the last bleed session, Nate noticed the calipers flexing about 15 degrees before full pedal pressure had been reached. These were the 4 pot calipers, btw, which should be actually
stiffer than the 6 pots.
