    I find the pedal quite far down and quite spongy when using it, the question I have is, can I adjust the pedal either up in its positioning or tighten it so easier to engage back brake?

    Normally you can adjust the pedal by slacking the lock nut on the adjuster rod on the brake cylinder and adjusting it up or down then tighten lock nut :)
