so my buddy and i switched out my sprockets and chain last night...
its a fairly easy and fast task but after i get it all set on and put together
i roll out and my rear brakes dont work... they grab my rotor but wont release it when i let off the brake...

im lost..

 

try spraing it weith cleaner a collapse the piston a few times

 

just keep pumping the **** out of them, sometimes I get that when I change a rim around. like the other day

 

Check your line to see if it's kinked

 

also make sure ur brake pedal is not sticking, Did u have a 2nd brake set up??

 

my master on my hand brake went bad so i took it off a few days ago
but i didnt look at my lines so ill make sure they arent kinked

thanks for the tips


ill let you know how it plays out...

 

If it was a piggy back system and you plugged your resevoir back in after taking off the handbrake you could have had a bubble in the line and it finally go to your master when you expanded / contracted the piston when changing the tire.

 

thats exactly what is was...

i let air in when i took my hb off and it wasnt affecting my rear until i took off my caliper to switch the sprockets out and messed with my brake piston.

thanks for the help with the situation

brakes fine now...
