Very small travel is usually a sign of seized up caliper pistons. _________________________________________ And this is entirely possible. It moves about 4 inches total and then the braking really starts. It breaks solid, and doesn't pull, and really doesn't seems to fade or lose pressure, so I figured it was okay, I also haven't worked on the back brakes at all yet, so maybe they are out of adjustment too? I'll check both of these things, Thanks!
