Does it lock up when brakes applied hard? They sure look good and also easy to clean.

Can you change the pads without removing the unit?

If you brake hard you'll block the front tyres before the rear one. But a fraction of a second later (according to my ears) the rear blocks too. But resuming: yes you can block it if apply a hard foot on the pedal.

About changing the brake pads, you need to remove the wheel, I guess. I'll ask Steve and Craig, but looking at the pictures, there is not much room to change the pads with the wheel on.

Congrats Javier - you are certainly pressing the upgrade buttons! Did you consider doing the Empire Kit with the Ohlins?

Thanks! cheers

Mine is a late 2019 unit, Finished to be manufactured in December 2019 and registered in January 2020. It already has the comfort kit and handles pretty well. No need of the Empire Kit as far as I know oops

Glad you like the Ohlins. It's hard to describe the improvement in empirical terms but as you say, anyone who drives hard, long or weighted will appreciate the investment. In my opinion, they transform the car from an agricultural to dynamic suspension.
