liveordie72089 Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 Alright today im supposed to ride at 1:30 and got on it today just to make sure everything was ok... Got down the road pretty far and my whole entire rear brake just got stuck... I tried to push it in but it was really hard... Then I was looking and noticed it looked like the brake pads were stuck on the rotor... I jumped on the rear brake to see if I could get it unstuck and finally broke it loose... Then when i was coming back the brake didn't work lol... Witch scared the SH*T out of me... Having to use the front brake at 6th lol and having to stop within a telephone pole length... Well when I slowly strolled my way to the house its like now I have to push the brake allllllll the way down to the ground in order for it to stop... What should I do... Should I try spraying WD40 on it and seeing if it loosens it up??? Or..... Quote
2001Stroker Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 Sounds like either the master cylinder or the caliper is toast. I would guess caliper, without looking at it. Is it leaking fluid anywhere? Quote
Sandfrk33 Posted February 8, 2009 Report Posted February 8, 2009 Mine did something like that after changing the pads. One pad cocked sidewaya and locked up. Straightened out the piston with a flathead and fixed it. Quote
