A small mod.
Bite point/free stroke adjuster (= how much/little lever travel before the brake "bites"/starts working):
Before: 1. was lever reach adjuster.
Now: 2. is a M5 bolt that acts as a lever stop and can be turned up or down = new lever reach adjuster.
Because 2. blocks the lever from moving further out, 1. now moves the piston start position deeper into the housing (and thereby the brakepads start position closer to the rotor) = bite point adjuster
