Progressive linear feel, nothing like it, I upgraded to these over the sprint pedal from Hu, and they are night and day better. If you like it all soft, make the spring yellow. Still, my advice for the best combination is red and green will make your trail brake clean and get rid of the spongy feel when releasing the brake slowly. If you are still deciding, don't think anymore, you are at the best option for a hydraulic pedal for the price.
