RK21H Brake Stuck

[MattLoaf]

Has anyone had an issue with the brake being stuck with the RK21? I’ve narrowed it down to the actual arm that pulls the break at the rear axle, behind the rear tire. The only way I can get it unstuck is to use a piece of rebar and a hammer to drive the lever back , then if I push the brake pedal it will operate but get stuck again. I am planning to take the tire off and see if I can get a better look at how the lever operates the brake, but looks like it might be a pain to get to. Anyone else have this problem and able to come up with a fix?

No specific help to share but the tym or general subcompact forum might have more eyeballs on your problem most will have a similar brake setups

A few have a connecting rod and 3-5 holes to attach the through bolt to you may be looking at just moving to the next hole once you get eyes on the problem

Hello. I’m now having the same problem with the RK 21 did you happen to figure out what it was and was it a permanent fix?
