Re：rb 44 adjusting front brakes Date Posted：09/12/2012 10:49:26Copy HTML You might get some adjustment via the back plate, I have ringed the bits I mean, from what I remember the are on a camber so a little turn should lift the shoes / adjusters slightly.
  bottom middle shows them on this, the post adjuster  "Nothing travels faster than the speed of light with the possible exception of bad news, which obeys its own special laws."
