Adjust the amount of lever travel by adjusting the gap between the disc and pad of either the outer pad adjuster or the fixed inner pad adjuster. Warning: Adjusting more than a . 020" (. 50mm) gap on either side of the disc may cause the lever to go to the bar causing brake failure. Check that it spins freely and that the gaps, between the pad and the disc, are equal. If the gaps are unequal, or if there is drag, readjust the caliper following the needed steps listed above.
