No, your comment has been said a million times before and you were clearly just trying to stir.

I know you're joking, but nevertheless to me it looks like "mineral oil" is written on that bottle

Update on the Lewis levers. I contacted all Lewis dealers and none were able to offer parts. I sent an email to the Lewis factory in China and they're willing to sell the parts. All of the small parts combined for both brakes cost 108$+30$ express shipping to Finland. I have no clue how long the actual shipping time will...

Short answer, I don't think so. Using reach adjust on the lever just changes the angle that the lever sits in reference to the lever body/bar, it does not adjust the plunger in the lever body or displace any brake fluid. The free stroke remains the same when using the reach adjust. You could in theory adjust bite point further out from the bar. The Hope's are great for this, but again, with such a powerful brake and such a long leverage, the free stroke is kind of needed. Maybe that makes sense? I'm no brake pro, just have experience...

Nice work. It is a shame TS maximas have that mad throw to them. It's also kinda niggly their power curve changes so drastically with reach adjust too.

I'd hoped their recent release was going to be something useful like bite point adjust rather than just something black.

I hate how much free throw is in my Trickstuff Maximas despite them being bled perfectly. After reading this and other threads it seems that's just how they are. But I refuse to accept that I couldn't get an adjustable bite point for my overpriced anchors. By half accident I bumped into a guy who had the infamous Lewis LH4's...
