Re adjusted all snail cams until wheels were hard to turn, re bled system.... I know have a pedal that is firm halfway down in travel, locks up front brakes while reversing in and out of shed and stomping on the pedal so 100% better then before I know have brakes!
Although to me the pedal still seems a little low at half travel, all brakes are adjusted up and all shoes have good contact patterns, pedal is firm and doesn’t feel spongey, how much travel should there be on a series 2 single circuit system? I might be being to picky with the old girl now!
