Are all T25's the same when adjusting the handbrake travel, if so how is it done? (Still waiting for the manual in the post )
Many thanks

Re: hand brake travel adj
Most times adjusting the shoes up will be all thats needed... the "self adjust" mech doesnt work all that well even if cleaned and coppaslipped...
