Don't brake when going over the bump......
If thats not it.... It may be a case of your brake discs are warped thats wahat I found on my MOT.. after toyota had said there was nothing wrong with the brakes.

yeah, mine do that. If im gently braking and go over a pot hole or something, I can feel the ABS kick in.
I assume its normal really, because your tyres wont have any grip on the road for that split second when you go over the pot hole

John, stop using that grey font, it makes it hard to read on the grey background. 
I have EBC disks and pads and they are far superior to the standard. No lipping after about 15 000 miles, don't grounach and stopping power right from the top of the pedal push rather than mush.
