Hi,

Can anyone give me any details about the standard brake setup? In particular - what size are the disks?

Thanks

Alex

Brakes are 10.9" front and 10.2" rear.
These numbers are significant when one considers the original Mini only had 10" wheels!

But the new MINI is quite a lot heavier and the larger wheels means more braking torque.
