Re: Hydraulic brakes

Cheers for the update. Basically speaking though, will they be any different to what you've got now? You've already got drums, and you'll be replacing them with drums?

Hydraulic brakes

Hi all, I’m towing with my Trike and find the Portafold is pushing when breaking. The over ride brake is working but not when breaking because of the push. Has anyone ever fitted or know of anyone fitting hydraulic brakes drum or disc.
Thanks

Awnings ???

Hi all, I’m looking for an awning for my Portafold and want to know from people what is the best awning for a portfold. Ideally one that joins the van with the channel. I had a bid on the eBay one which was an original. So what have you got ?
Thanks
