The brake assembly comprises an operator brake pedal (103) configured to be depressed at a brake pedal angle, wherein a brake pedal effort input applied to the operator brake pedal is associated with the brake pedal angle, and a brake pedal linkage (100A) operatively connected to the operator brake pedal and configured to apply a vehicle braking force in response to depression of the operator brake pedal, wherein the brake pedal linkage is configured to affect a first rate of change of the brake pedal effort input with respect to depression of the operator brake pedal through an initial range of motion of the operator brake pedal, wherein the brake pedal linkage is further configured to affect a second rate of change of the brake pedal effort input with respect to depression of the operator brake pedal through a subsequent range of motion of the operator brake pedal, and wherein the second rate of change is greater than the first rate of change.",
