in a Modern Everyday road car, that should not happen unless something is loose etc causing the same as below. However in race cars, especially such as 'supercars' in Australia, Drivers will tap the Brake pedal at the end of a long straight before brake zone to ensure the Pads are close to the rotor/disc, This is often because of...

You are correct however in those moments where the pedal is hitting the floor with no stopping action, the brake ain't working the way it's intended to.

If I had to double tap my brakes every time I pulled them, I’d throw them straight in the trash. That’s not acceptable brake operation.

gentle reminder that MTB design is often based around a medium/ML size, jackson is like the perfect size for it. He stands very upright and this is hard to replicate for taller riders, to be in correct ratio for riders over 6ft etc the bike would be so long it would be useless everywhere except for straight lines. including a...

front pins are lowerd to assist in 'toe down' entry which is something that has plagued the SPD pedal since it was invented. the oneup's are also similar in that regard but Oneup changed the SPD mechanism to fix the initial movement float that has also plagued the SPD standard, combined with some actual shoe to platform They made SPD's...

For some reason they still have the pins/platforms on two different levels though, something which I already hate with the Saint pedal as well. I am currently using the oneup pedals, super happy with them - Want to put them on a new build but they are out of stock eternally.

finally a shimano clip pedal that might actually contact a shoe.(some shoes do as they flex or deep cleat pocket's) or support oneup who make the best SPD pedal so far that you can actually rebuild.

Heavy lever pull is bad. Heavy lever pull as a consequence of a progressive leverage ratio that gives a lot of pad retract AND a lot of power is a good thing. You can't have everything... As for variable leverage ratio (lever feel), Lewis actually does this...

I prefer the bases on my DH bike than the TRP PRO and Maven Silvers on anther bike. a touch less initial power which has been great to add a little bit more control.
