Is it only the Juicys, Hope X2/X4's? and Magura Louise BAT?

Shimano modulation? more of a lever reach on older systems but latest systems are good.

With Juicy's, I think it's only 7's and up.

Although, saying that I think a mate has Elixir R's and they don't have the contact adjustment, just reach adjustment; hence R I guess as you can get CR's with both.

I have M775 levers with free stroke adj but it doesn't really seem to make any difference.

Yeah Elixir CRs have contact and reach adjustment, seems to work okay on mine.

Hope Tech X2 have lever reach and bite point adjustment. I believe that Formula The One also have this.

Unless I am getting what you mean by bite point adjustment wrong, all the old style Shimano's I had did it, and so do my black and gold Hope M4's... No reach adjustment but bite point.

I looked into it recently for a guy on another thread and it definately mentions reach adjustment and bite point adjustment on the new Shimano Servowaves too.

The FCS system on Formula Oro K24's, and probably other Formula brakes, are bite point adjustments (at the lever) I believe.

My 7's do, but why is beyond me - as I just have them all the way out anyway.

Anybody know a simple 'fix' to take them off without impacting performance?
