akirby Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 What is the front to rear brake bias? It's the percentage of brake force that goes to the front brakes and to the rear brakes, but that's not important right now....... Edge has 4 channel ABS with 4 separate channels, not just front and rear. And it can modulate the brakes to each wheel individually. I do know the rear brakes wear out faster than the fronts (also happening on other brands, not just Fords), but it's not a simple front/rear bias. Why do you want to know? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waldo Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 It also has electronic brake force distribution which means the actual bias front to rear is always changing, depending on how hard you press the pedal. It starts off fairly rear biased on light braking, then builds up more pressure in the fronts as you brake harder. Of course once you're into ABS, the actual bias can be anything depending on the traction available. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
