I have recently constructed (with the help of a friend) a road bike with Shimano Di2 Dual Control shifter set (ST -R785, 2 X 11). However having set up the disc brakes, the free stroke distance of the dual control levers is quite some distance before they bite..in fact the bite occurs just before the levers touch the handlebars. The levers are not 'spongy ' which I believe suggests the system does not need bleeding. In addition the free stroke adjustment screws on the levers are set to minimum. (Which I believe is the factory setting).
Can anyone suggest a way of reducing the free stroke distance.
