The shiv adapter isn't going to help.
I think the best approach is:

1. Make sure you have an excellent front brake, and a good brake pad, because the front brake does 90% of the work anyway

2. Make sure you have the latest P4 rear brake carefully set up. If you do a search there are some threads on how to tweak it, I think Gerard Vroomen commented on a few of them.

cheers Jack
Was hoping that a wizzard made an customized p4 adaptor...
yeah the front brake is actually brilliant, but right now the rear brake doesn't even do 5%...

You can make the rear brake acceptable, it is never going to be great. Read up then iterate, iterate, iterate.

P4 is a beautiful creature, but she can be a bitch as well.
