BRAKES WHAT'S NORMAL
#25
(21-01-2019, 09:10 PM)Chris KC Wrote: Ideally set it up so all the various levers are operating at right angles when just about to apply, for best mechanical advantage.

Just looking at one of my back levers (uncoupled), I can see that they should be near 90 degrees but are currently pulled further forward and will be even less efficient when full on. 
Can I ask what the "set up" options are. i.e. is the only way I can get this back by shimming or introducing thicker linings, or does the lever on the back plate have adjustment somehow? I imagine not as its part of the cam.
I've looked in the Austin handbook and searched on the web but haven't come across anything easily accessible...
