a brake that stops too easily and fast, much like over tightened bicycle brakes

My brake used to do that when I did manuals but I just kept riding it and its stopped! And I switched from Old A wheels to PROTOs if that means anything.

Try to sand the part that's touching the wheel...
It happened to my old brake, it was a tiny bit rusty...landing from 5 stairs into a fakie was enough for it to slightley touch the wheel and make me fly on my back...
Sanding and getting it smooth solved the problem...

anyone ever hear of humidity?
duh
thats the answer
the more humid it is the more sensitive your brakes are gonna be
like on a bike

thats not really an issue with scooters. when i lived in florida, my brake never locked up like that.
