A hydraulic brake master cylinder is provided that is compact and light in weight. The master cylinder has a reservoir shape that provides increased reservoir expansion volume. The master cylinder also provides gear shifter operation clearance and a comfortable lever that allows easy adjustment without the use of tools. The lever has defined increments of adjustment which make it easy to use. The invention also includes a method of bleeding air from the system without requiring reorientation of the master cylinder. The retention methods for the various lever embodiments shown allow for easy and inexpensive retention of the lever and also provide for reduced overall weight and cost.
