[ErikHoward]

so i have a 08 pro model i can't take off the brake or tighten
it is so wierd i have never had a promblem and i hate when my
brake rattles so i need to know what to do to get it off hopefully you
know what i mean.


im not stupid i always take them off and tighten it i just dont
know what is up.

I could help but i need more info. Did you break your brake? (lawl) or is the bolt bent or something. Give me more info and maybe i could help

 

[ErikHoward]

i dont know i think its bent whenever i try to tighten or loosen it it just spins around and dosent do anything

 

[conordavidson]

PROBLEM.

 

[ErikHoward]

what?

 

[cameron199]

try to bend it out and put a nickel under the spring it will make it tighter

 

[schuhman524]

WD-40 might work

 

[ErikHoward]

well i did something else even though i cant take it
off or tighten it just now i just put tape so the spring wouldent move

 

[AaronA]

all i got to say is take a hack saw to the bolt holding the brake on and put a new 1 in

 

[Hep Greg]

hack saw it off, and use an old bolt.

 

[kolbycrouch]

threads on the bolt are probly messed up, just hack saw it off

[molewood4]

[Jake ODonnell]

[Scott Trainer]

my bolt that holds it in was all bent when i got it out
i eventually got it off

 

[JonnyJonDogg]

how can you bend it?

i use blade brakes and they gradually put more force on the bolts
