As deep-sky pointed out the spring is one piece. But the basic issue of whether one side or both sides are being acted on is still in play. Stomping down to engage the pedal will/may cause both parts of the spring to need to flex. Therefore a higher tension. Working your foot so one sid eof the spring is hooked in before pressing down means only one side or amount od spring motion is needed to engage. Andy.
