• Arghhh, why won’t the brake caliper return?
    Campag Centaur skeleton
    New return spring fitted (the old one broke)
    Stripped, cleaned, refitted
    New cable
    New cable outer
    Taken the whole cockpit back on the bars with new tape
    Nothing, literally nothing fixes the caliper sticking after the lever is pulled
    Pretty close to taking a hammer to all the things
    Have I missed anything?

  • Does it return with no cable attached? If so it is definitely in the cable. I would guess that it's where you cut the outer. I fyou didn't clean the cut properly, theere's a chance some of the outer is preventing the inner from sliding through.

  • There's a lot of reasons, brake inner, rusted washers, many other reasons!
