I have smallish hands, but not enough to need the Shimano ST-R600's which accomodate especially small hands.
I put a small clear pad like they have on glass top tables on the very top of the lever, kind of like a wedge. Then I loosened the brake adjuster. It works like a dream. If the words don't make sense I can post a pic. Most people say that was so simple I would not have thought of that
