Hi all,

THis is a pretty basic newbie question. The brake levers on my wife's mountain bike feel mushy. I've replaced the brake cables and have the pads as near the rim as possible without any rubbing, but the levers still feel "mushy" to me -- that is, in reference to the point at which they engage.

Is there an adjustment on the levers themselves that can help with this?

The levers are pretty standard -- nothing fancy. I don't see a manufacturer logo on them anywhere but most of the other components on the bike are Shimano.

Thanks.
