ABS doesn't kick in unless you brake hard enough for the wheel to slip. Then it will decrease the brake force until the wheel has grip again, increase brake force until the wheel starts to slip and the cycle repeats itself a few times a second. In an emergency it's doubtful that even the best driver can do the same thing.
Electronic brake force distribution. Keeps the appropriate braking force on each wheel so that the car goes straight and doesn't pull to one side, but don't confuse this with ESC. ESC can kick in even without touching the brakes.

Even on non-ABS cars the front brakes are already designed to have more force than the rear, because when you brake the weight distribution moves forward.

Front brake has more force than rear is a safety feature, so that if you were to lock your wheel during emergency braking, you will lock your front wheels first.

If you lock your front wheels, your car can still go straight. If your rear wheels are locked first, the car will go anywhere but straight forward. It has to do with force and moment exerted on The car's body.

Locked rear wheels = fishtailing. Scary stuff sweat.gif

On the same note, I hear a lot of people say always use the rear brake on a bicycle, because if you pull the front brake you'll fly over the handlebars. What rubbish, I have clocked a few thousand km of road riding and the front brake always work better. In fact I only use the rear brake when I want to pull the bike vertical on its rear wheel and at one point, my bike didn't have rear brakes at all thumbup.gif
That's why I told you last night, the FLX is everything the BLM should have been in the first place. Just too bad we missed it by being a year too early.

I distribute brake between rear And Front on my bike.

Btw off topic, currently looking for budget roadbike. Any Suggestion?

just reparked my sister's new chitty chitty bang bang.

whooaa, it jerked like hell, because of my brake pedal action. very sensitip wan.

I am very used to how my saga brake works. Release the brake, then clutch close, car start to move slowly.

but not the case with chitty chitty bang bang.
Brake pedal released, the car moved quickly forward. Stepped on the brake, just like I do in Gaga, car stopped completely and of course jerked. Release the brake pedal, car moved quickly again, applied brake, jerked again. Haisch, then after few seconds of jerkiness, then only I can manage the brake, eventhough not 100%.

Honda brake all like this one a? Drove CR-V also like this rclxub.gif

Day running light is a cosmetic item. Nothing much to do with safety. Want your car to be seen clearly at night, go put reflectors. Cheaper i reckon.

Keep it low brader. On the internet, emotion is 0. Same kinda wording, different kinda intepretation. As I looking at the gambar hang posted, feels like wanna kena tumbuk or wanna tumbuk orang laugh.gif

Mahihi
Senior member liao, don't provoke la. He admited, and I'm happy atleast we furnished a fair ground for everybody to speak despite sometimes emotion gets in a way. But I guess emotican saved us all icon_idea.gif by looking at the picture, I felt more like kena tumbuk, coz ayam the TS, and shall never involve myself in an argument doh.gif

Our long dued midnight run where ar? whistling.gif I will show u how to seb petrol with LC0K. Lately driven a few FLX CVT, got more practical knowledge & understanding to the machine. I managed to squeeze about 14km/l for 2 tank straight, which is quite similar to a BiBa's FC liao. Also "tested" its outstanding ABS. Bravo to FLX EXEC notworthy.gif

mind sharing the recipe for 14km/l?
