VIDEO: Do brake master cylinder stoppers do anything?

Thinking about getting a brake master cylinder stopper? I decided to test if they actually do anything in this video.

See the results for yourself....

No surprise that it works to limit movement. Doesn't result in any better brake distance and I've never noticed a difference in brake feel (if I didn't know it had a MCB installed before driving it).


They are nice bling though

Small movement in the MC is amplified by the long brake pedal lever arm. Changes in feel needs little movement. I definitely noticed a difference. More so than braided lines.



Oh, mines black from Grimmspeed, love that style, no bling, just function, they made a nice video too.
