I've recently purchased an orange crush and when out in the forest last night i noticed my back brake is significantly softer and spongier that the front brake. The front brake is really tight and nice and sharp and the back brake feels like there is nothing there... How can i adjust this or is there an issue with the brake?

Probably needs more bedding in, or the pistons advancing.

Same problem with my Whyte 901 - which also has the same brakes. Curious.0

I have a Whyte 901, I have the same situation. There's more fluid to push in the rear brake, so there will be more lever throw. The front brake is more powerful anyway, so the back will feel underpowered in relation. Just make sure they're bedded in properly and they'll stop you fine.0
