   yep its the bias valve
   
   it thinks ur boot is full of luggage cos its lowered
   
   you will have to fashion a brace for it to keep it open

   Number 3 is what you want to be adjusting. Undo for less braking pressure on the rear and vica versa.
   
   use loads of WD 40 first
   
   oh and dont quote me on this, there is no exact science.
   
   dont blame me if you overdo it!!!!
