  • Why is my Arkose rear wheel locking up under the slightest braking pressure? Happened about 4 times just then and nearly bailed. Feels like the cranks locked up too. Really odd feeling.

    It's an Arkose 4 with TRP Hydros and 35 Vittoria Voyager Hypers if that helps. It's a bit wet in Manchester tonight but nowhere near wet enough for what's happening.

    Recently rebuilt the components on to a new frame (Arkose 2 to Arkose 4), is it possible I've done something drastically wrong?

  • Photo? Even then hard to pin point what's wrong without seeing the bike in person and taking it for a ride.

    Check the QR/axle is done up properly? Also check for tyre clearance and if there's any play in the hub?
