Here's a coupla questions:
I want to bring the brake lever closer to the bar...I took out the plug and put in the Torx 15 driver, but it wouldn't turn. I expected it to turn and then the lever would ratchet closer to the grip...what did I do wrong?
I already cut and shortened the rear hose...I just p/u a cable hanger for the hose line, but it requires that I undo the hose, feed it through the cable hanger...Can I just undo the line, feed it through? or do I have to use new parts each time you break the connection?

Hi
the lever indeed adjusts with the torx bolt in the front of the lever. Sometimes they are a little tough, as they are not supposed to adjust themselves. Use the correct size torx and turn the bolt clockwise.

You can use the fitting over ( not over and over, just once or twice ). Just unscrew the alloy sleeve nut. Than spread the olive a little and slidew over the end. When you done assemble everything and check for leaks. Dont loose any of the seals and leave the insert in the hose.
