Miche Performance long drop brakes - wheel removal prob
Hi. Am having a slight issue trying to remove wheels from a newly built up Tifosi CK7 frame. I went for this so I could run 25mm tyres with full guards. The frame (2nd hand) came with Miche Performance 57mm drop brakes. Really pleased with the new set up apart from the fact that I can't seem to easily drop the wheel after flicking the lever on the brake to release the calliper tension. This was never an issue with my previous race bike running 23 or 24mm tyres with standard drop Tektro brakes (r580s?)
Is there a trick to setting up my MP brakes, so I can easily drop the wheel out of the front or rear dropouts? Apologies if this is a numpty question!
cheers

Adjust the brakes such that the brake cable adjuster is unscrewed a couple of turns. When you need to release the wheel, screw the adjuster in a couple of turns.Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..0
