    Default Brake Extension Arm Question

    I purchased the "RefinedCycle Brake Pedal Extension for RT (see below)

    http://refinedcycle.com/BPE2-Brake-P...pyder-BPE2.htm

    The problem I'm having is when I depress the brake pedal it hits the top of the front of the floorboard before I run out of pedal? I can't depress brake fully and the floorboard no longer breaks away....did I do something wrong? Any suggestions?

    Why is it hitting; is the extension flexing under pressure?
    Can you try mounting it up on top of the BRP arm?
    Good luck!

    Make sure your reservoir is topped off.

    Mine just taps the floorboard as the "Breakaway" occurs...
    How much more travel do you have, before the floorboard drops?

    Default Curious. ....🤔

    I notice they have an BPE2 but also have a BPE1 offered. If the system is bled and at it's best you could mount the extension on top of the stock pedal to give you more clearance. I would, howerver, check to see why the floorboard is not breaking away...
