drilled, tapped, fitted everything up today

Fit, finish and looks i give it a 9/10

Ill put up some pics later tonight when i get a chance.

Functionality... well... how about a 3/10

The adjusters work perfectly but... my screw/threads leak like a sieve.

I actually seen this coming but i still have yet to figure out what i am going to do about it and still maintain the functional point of preload adjusters.

The pitch of the chinese adjuster screw is pretty high 1.5, if it was lower and it threaded a little tighter the threads might have held, but given this they do not. The threads are fairly loose.

I know Alex s mentions fitting an oring in the system somewhere, and i think that is the way to go, just need to figure it out
