Bigger brake master cylinder options

Note a smaller diameter master cylinder applies more pressure on the brake pads. Another option is to change the lever ratio, which give you more stroke at the M/C per pedal travel by moving the push rod location. You do not want the angle of the push rod to be more then 7 degrees.

Thanks, there is no room to change the push-rod location. I can adjust the balance between front and rear with a pressure regulator so this probably won't be an issue when I change the mastercilinder.

So I've started disassembling the current setup. Does anyone know the thread-pitch that's used? I want to make new braided lines
