When I bought by 235, it had dual pedals (with brakes) but I removed them before I ever flew the plane for several reasons: 1. There have been a number of incidents involving brake lock up attributed to the dual brake setup. 2. Rudder cable friction was significant in my installation. Fru Fru duster worked great to reduce friction and sticking. 3. Weight 4. Passenger leg room & knee panel clearance These issues may be less inportant in the 320/260 or Legacy, as power and cockpit dimensions are larger.
