I've got a VERY low biting point, literally as soon as you let off the floor

Replaced quadrant and pawl on pedal
Replaced clutch cable

The quadrant and self adjuster is working spot on.
I have tried whacking spacers along the clutch cable to triple check that there is no stretch (or the new ones are too long etc)

And still the low biting point remains. So this says to me clutch or release bearing. Any other ideas? And what could have gone wrong clutch wise?
It still goes through all the gears perfectly. Its just very hard to get into gear but that might be because of the bite point as well....
