Re: Brake adjustments, stick or no stick

Paul, Adjusting the rods should only be done to bring the rods up to their specifications. Any worn parts should be fixed first. After that, all adjustments should only be done with the adjusters. The front levers should be repaired so that there is no slack when they are at the 15 degrees angle. I usually have to add one of the "pills" spacers or replace the pins that go through the king pin. Of course, the brakes must be in good condition to be able to adjust them properly.
If you plan on living long enough that the parts for the rods get worn, then you will have to again adjust them, after fixing the worn parts.
