Smile Speedmaster rear brake pedal

Anyone know if and how you can adjust the rear brake pedal on a Speedmaster? It's cos I'm a short-arse and the brake pedal's just a wee bit of a stretch for me.
Any help is much appreciated!

Yeah... not really what I asked there friend but thanks anyway. I did read the whole blurb on them until I got to the HOW MUCH??? bit
I'm only looking at a way to bring the brake pedal about 10mm closer to my foot.

If it's the same as my America it should be pretty straight forward. The threaded rod between the bottom of the pedal and the master cylinder is the only adjustment I can see.
Disconnect the pedal and adjust the position and retighten the locking nut and re assemble.




Good luck

No prob.

The really cool thing about this forum is that there are so many really clever and knowledgeable riders in it (not saying I'm one, I just happened to know this one).
