2009: “Front brake lever is frozen, lever will not pull back. Does not engage front brake calibers. Back brakes work fine. Luckily noticed problem at low speed! If I was moving faster, could've rear ended truck on highway (I-4) in florida where speeds reach 80-90 flow of traffic. Bikes in my garage still unfixed.”
