Downshift to slow
Downshift to slow? I have always been told/ believed it was cheaper/easier to replace brakes than a clutch. Maybe thats some misconception I have carried over from manual trans cars?
If you use a little throttle to sync the engine to the road speed as you shift, there is very little wear on the clutch. On the other hand, without compression braking to help out, the brakes wear out more quickly and, may heat up and fade when you need them the most.
