Could you help me out. The gf's Brompton's rear brake was super stiff, so pulled out the brake cable for a clean and re-oil. However, I noticed the caliper itself is quite stiff... i.e. you push it together, but it doesn't spring back readily.
wet lube on the top and left pivot, on the back of the right hand side is a brass housing over the spring, pull the brake, lube that and on/off the brake to get the lube inside!
The gold brakes are brill except the 10mm hex not being allen key headed
Guys (maybe @Rhobbs),
Could you help me out. The gf's Brompton's rear brake was super stiff, so pulled out the brake cable for a clean and re-oil. However, I noticed the caliper itself is quite stiff... i.e. you push it together, but it doesn't spring back readily.
Any advice? It's a 2012 model.
