WIth regards to setting up the Force levers and the BB7s, which run great there wa a trick I saw.
When finally tightning the brake cable, pull the tension lever on the BB7 off the bottom and up to where it touches the brake, ease off a little and then tighten the brake cable securing nut. This will remove the slack from the cable. Pump the brake a few times and check if there is excess play in the lever, or if you've over tightened and rubbing. If so try again, or if not much play, just use a barrel adjuster to remove rest. Then they'll be set up great.
