by the sounds of things you just have them set up wrong, try undoing the clamp a little and angling the cylinder so it hits the rim when pulled. if the pads not touching the rim try moving the cylinder forwad in the clamp a bit as well or unwind your tpa.

ive tried every thing, moving all the cilinders ...

but it just doesnt seem to work i think ive got the wrong brake

i had a monty 219

Oh ok, I was thinking you might have had a t-vee, some cheaper bikes have 20" rear wheels instead of 19".

Where abouts does your back wheels sit in the dropouts? Could you possibly take a link out of your chain? That would allow the wheel to sit further into the dropouts and the wheel will be more towards the bike.

Sounds as if you need to take a link out of your chain!!!! But pictures would help.

They are V mounts not 4 bolt mounts that won't help you need to get some 4 bolt mounts!!!
