I have had the same problem, with my first corsa, it was lowered and on hard braking, the rear wheels would brake harder than the front, i was like pulling up the hand brake.
I have now fitted spax adj sus to my new corsa B and the same thing is happing again.
ANY IDEAS???

Rear brake bias. There's this spring on the rear beam. Adjust that. There will be a sliding adjuster on it. Slide to the bottom then all is good.

Iirc- It's a bias sensor thats located on the rear beam. I'm not 100% on how you fix it but i think you adjust it's position or something along those lines

slacken the adjuster with the spring on it on the rear beam, but sometimes it doesn't slacken enough and you need to make a bracket to lengthen the adjustment.

Yes brake bias - get under the car and look for the spring-like thing on the right hand side of the rear axle when looking at the car from the rear. Jack the car up to normal ride height (ie. not lowered) and observe the length of the spring. That's how long it should be when you lower the jack back down. Adjust accordingly.
