Wooden brake pedals

hi all

Please could you remind me - I am not running a servo and have 1" 4 pots on the front and Sierra discs on the back.

My master cylinder has sprung a leak - it is a Tilton 3/4 unit and the pedal is brick like with little feel and little travel.

Do I need to go down to a 0.7 for a softer feel with the penalty of longer travel?

Thanks
Gavin

They might as well be - they have the same feel as a lump of oak....

Sounds like a good plan, you may even get down to a 0.65, but then pedal travel may be an issue....

nothing worse than the wrong ratios and unpleasant brakes.
