I don't get how less leverage on your brakes is better. I have to rebuild my front brake master cylinder today...and how I found out was when I squeezed my lever (in towards the bike with 2 fingers) my bike did not stop. I had to shift my fingers to the end of the lever to get my brakes to work.

Not really sure what would have happened if I did not have more lever there.

Use the rear brake?

Rear brake on my bike don't really do anything...except turn on my brake light which I learned today that my front brake does not do...again.
