That's appaling service - it's a shame you can't post an eBay review without buying anything.
And your question about springs is perfectly reasonable. This is a reply from an earlier thread:

When you remove the standard pegs, you lose that spring. A lot of rearsets don't come with a replacement so it's hard to gauge how much pressure you're applying. Some rearsets do have a small conical coil return spring like this one from Sato http://satoracing.com/brakereturnspring.htm that fits on or in the master cylinder and that can improve the feel.
My current rearsets don't have a spring and I had thought about fitting one but soon got used to the feeling so didn't bother. Now they feel perfectly natural. |
And even the top professionals use Rob's rubber band method:

This is Biaggi's RS250...
