froggy8 Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 also disk brakes dont move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froggy8 Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 i have a feeling the grub screw that holds the fuel tube has come loose so that is probably why the brakes has stopped working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonybt Posted January 18, 2022 Author Share Posted January 18, 2022 Thanks..also while I've been lookin at the two screws that you adjust for the disk brake one is screwed in more than the other hopefully it's that.. the second screw is so hard to get to..I dont want to take stuff apart hahaha thanks for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
