What does brake diving mean?
1 Answers
The cause of brake diving phenomenon: When the vehicle brakes, the center of gravity of the vehicle will shift forward, and the front suspension springs are in a compressed state. During this process, the springs bear the reverse stress transmitted from ground friction to the vehicle body. At the moment when the vehicle speed reaches 0, the ground friction disappears, but the springs are still in a compressed deformation state. The process of stress release and deformation recovery will form a recoil effect on the vehicle body and passengers inside. It feels like a "bounce" or "nodding". Solution: Modifying the suspension is useless, as too soft suspension will only make the spring deformation larger. If too hard, it will affect comfort. The best way to solve this problem is to improve your braking technique.
