ok serious for a second here, the back- having been ignored for a long time is freshly shoed up, goodridged and bled but due to the angle of the standard set ones foot is sat in the almost full pressure position anyway, followed by another inch or so untill it bites. there doesnt seem to be any adjustment so to speak as the lever is as high as it gets as it touches the bottom of the hanger bracket? is there an adjustment on the pin into the brem cylinder that I am not seeing? It is currently not very "turn off and on able". cheers.

it is tricy but unlike Gabriel Garcia Marquez or Fyodor Dostoevsky there is no need for a family tree. I'm off to amazon to order kitanos latest, looks to be a "blinder" hahahahaha....
