Alex-Mitchinson Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 Its personal preference, but yeh I like my leaver to only go in a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Kearns Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 I had mine pulling in quite far. I felt i had a better grip on the bars and i could pull harder on the brake lever meaning i could get more power. I also felt that if i had it pulling in further i had more control over the bike.But it's all personal preference.Danny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambton Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 I have mine pulling in a fraction past half way, I think this give you more control than having the brake biting instantly and allows you to pull it harder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onza-Trials Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 i have wound my lever in to like almost the grip and i only pull a little bit feels really nice and i feel more capable as i think my brake wont slip on me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
