Old Car and Bike rambling

Years ago, I posted about using a 1/2" master cylinder and posted a long analysis of leverage ratios and finding a way to get a better feel with braking. Though I was able to have really fine control with light braking I couldn't get a really strong stop with the smaller 1/2" master cylinder piston but I didn't want to go back to the original piston until I read that a radial master cylinder is supposed to be better according to Google's AI search results: A radial master cylinder can significantly improve braking feel by providing more direct force transfer from the lever to the brake caliper. This results in better modulation and feedback, allowing for more precise control over braking force compared to an axial master cylinder, where the force is redirected by the lever pivot. Radial master cylinders are generally more rigid, which enhances the crispness and consistency of the feel I found this 14x18 radial master on Amazon and figured for under $50, why not gi...
