Mike...non power assisted brakes, just regular old leg power.

Mickmate...I will check the free play, although I don't think there is any as the rod is directly connected to the pedal, so physics would dictate it starts to compress as soon as I press the pedal. No check valve as I built this thing from scratch, and didn't build one in. The pedals are quite free to return when released, although there is no 'spring' attached.

Cobred...nice tip. I shall try this tomorrow.
