I’ve would the levers in using the screw under the hood so they are closer to the bars - this has taken out the initial pull on the lever that didn’t do anything, and combined with tensioning the calliper barrel adjuster and the pad in adjustments has got something that works okay, but I’ll reserve full judgement until the pads have bedded in
roadwarrior-
Adjusting the reach doesn't remove initial pull that doesn't do anything, just moves the levers in for smaller hands and gives you less overall movement to play with. If there's a bit of pull that didn't do anything then you need more cable pulled through, or adjust the barrel adjuster if it's only a little.

In what direction did you do this? or in other words, were you trying to gain more lever throw or less?
I hate my spyres. I've got new Tiagra levers and Jagwire compressionless housing.
It feels like when braking from the drops, I just can't stop (maybe my small hands). I can engage the levers and they quickly bite, but they don't quite bite enough. So I guess that means short lever throw, quick engagement, but no bite/power?
Maybe I just miss the modulated feel of rim brakes?
What do people think of the TRP HY/RD setups?
