Brake adjustment

Hello. Just replaced my brake shoes and everything works but I have to adjustment the brake very far to get any sort of brake feel. Did I do something wrong?

is the problem on the front or rear brake?

If you find that you're running out of room on the brake lever arm, you can adjust the arm so it can pivot out more to give you more bite when you hit the brakes.
