my method is

1. fit master cylinder

2. test master cylinder

3. replace master cylinder if your not happy with it.

in all honesty I have fitted different types of master cylinders and they have all worked, some better than others, I think its as much personal preference as anything else, worst case you might end up with a lever that's very hard without much feel but with a brembo I doubt it. my preference is to lift the back wheel with 1 light touch of the lever with 1 finger. whereas I believe the pie man likes to bend levers (tough bloke from the North) before his bike stops.
