I'm finding it a bit of a challenge adjusting the pad clearance.
The caliper is a Shimano M375 on a Dash E3. The deal is, the caliper is 'adjusted' by setting the caliper body such that the outboard pad is pretty close to the rotor and then using a 5mm hex wrench to adjust the inboard pad to the correct gap. In the case of the front caliper you run the hex wrench in through the spokes from the opposite side of the wheel. The rear caliper adjusting bolt is blocked by the hub motor leaving about 3/16" (4.8mm) of space, too little by far to get a hex wrench into. I made up a custom tool but I'm wondering if I missed some more obvious meathod.
