Cornered too quickly this morning and wheel went out from under me. Brake lever took the brunt of the impact and now the caliper won't 'open' again once the brake is pulled (pads are left rubbing against the rim). Both lever and caliper look fine (lever is scratched up), but just want to know if there's any mechanical damage/ failure to look out for, or is the brake just being funny because the spring/ cable was pulled too hard? Thanks~
