Have you adjusted the shoes so that they just skim the drum. If not you will get a lot of pedal travel. to do this correctly you need to slacken the hand brake cable then adjust the brake shoes manually with a screw driver or similar tool so that the drum will not turn then slacken off again until they will spin.then re adjust the hand brake cable.
