I have one to go on the 90 from X-Eng. Nice guys to deal with. Very helpful and a quality product. Have heard nothing but good comments about them.

I have the X-Eng original fitted to my 110, works brilliantly, the biggest test it has had was when I pulled a RIB and trailer up a slip way and had to stop half way up.  Didn't pull the brak on any harder than normal and it held perfectly.  It is far and away the best bit of kit I have fitted.

When I bought it in Brighton (2006), Simon offered to fit it for me there and then, on the promenade!!  Had to decline though as the landy was halfway across town in a multi-story, when I did fit it, it only took about an hour and a half..

Have to agree with all the above.  Got an X-Brake on the Disco Td5.  Much better than the original bit of kit (mainly 'cos it doesn't need cleaning, which suits me).
