I had to replace the valve stems on both the front and rear tires recently and after reassembling the bike, everything seemed to be in order. I just happened to check the back brake and after applying pressure, the brake pedal would not return to the up position (other than doing it manually). I use the back brake without the front often, so I am confident it was working 100% before we removed the tire. My buddy seems to think that removing and lubricating the pedal shaft will fix the problem, but I'm skeptical as this was working smoothly beforehand as I mentioned. Is there something we have forgotten to adjust? The rear brake adjustment was also left as-is (other than being removed from the brake hub in order to remove the wheel) and the spring(s) are both functional. Only other modification was that the tension clamp(?) for the brake pedal adjustment on the hub required a new bolt because the old one was not threading properly. Any knowledge of this problem?
