Just done a potts mod for a fellow radster
Took me an hour to surgically remove the quick release lever
one thing i didn't know was that the hole it came out of is oval so fits the adjuster perfect
(adjuster will be on the inside when fitted to a bike so cable lines up with the pinch bolt)
Lastly i opened up the top hole a little to accept a new pinch bolt

If it hits the down tube, space the pads out with washers thus lowering the top part of the caliper

Lee,

Think you'll need to put the weinmann adjuster on the other way round mate so that the exposed cable lines up vertically & straight in to the top pinch bolt.

In fact you'll need to turn the top pinch bolt the other way around as well.
