My rear Juicy 3 lever is almost coming back to the bars.. Does anyone have any information on adjusting, then manual that came with the bike is next to useless...

Cheers.......

    Or a crappy factory bleed? If mine are anything to go by the reach adjuster won't help if your lever's nearly on the bar.

    it all depends on how it feels. sometimes a bleed but more often or not adjustment.

    The reach adjuster screw has worked a treat....

    :)

    Talking of Juicy reach adjusters, do they have a stop to prevent them being screwed in too far?

    where exactly is this adjuster screw?? is it the one inbetween the lever and the body of the brake (bit thats connected to the handlebar)

    There are two grub screws between the lever and the bar. The one furthest from the bar secures the pivot so don't touch that. The other one is the reach adjuster. Screwing it in moves the lever away from the bar.
