Adjusting Rear Brake
« on: March 28, 2016, 10:09:36 PM »
How do you tighten the rear brake? I went to tighten the nut but the nut oddly rotates the entire bolt piece and a concave piece of metal under it. It seems to cycle the long bolt one rotation but not move anything.

the concave piece is part of the nut itself. As you turn it to the right it tightens the cable. Try two or three turns and see if you get any change at the lever.

I'll give it another try. I assumed you'd see some in/out bolt movement at the wrenching nut.
