Adjusters fully free as I completely strip & clean, then grease and releasable each service. They are a bitch to get to on the port side.
Thanks for description (and for asking Q) .... to be honest that is almost exactly the sequence I followed .... with exception that Indespension do not say to undo the compensator (to release mushroom heads) ....
When I get newBowden cables I'll try this set up.
Only real difference, is that Indespension instructions were to tighten up brakes until locked, then back off until - when you give the wheel a spin ... it will rotate 1.5 turns before stopping .. i.e, some drag not fully clear.
They do say check for 5-8mm play in cable - which I did have.
Interesting that for point 10 - Indespension & Alko say zero clearance, but several people advise to put in clearance.
Picking up new Bowden cables tomorrow - so will fit these on Friday.
Then will grease the actuators (spreaders) at same time.
