In reply to a message from richinco sent Sat 16 Jul 2011:
Dear all,
I have a similar problem
‘‘the hand brake leaver hits on the top of the cage that s
surrounds the rear end.’’
But not the same as it is definitely not rusted on as there
is some play, but I do not see how to force the leaver down
to be able to slide the caliper round.
Are there any tricks I am missing?
I have a build up of rust on the edge of the disk that make
a kind of lip. Tomorrow I was thinking to knock it of with
a hammer? (gently) But thought I would see if there is
anything else I am missing.
I can just about turn the disk by rotating the wheel, but
the normal rear brakes are binding and hence the need to
remove them and rebuild the clipers.
Thanks Neil–
