Right across the street from his house is a high school, so I was going to practice in the big parking lot. So we gear up and start rolling down his long driveway, and i get to the street doing all of 10mph and pull the front brake lightly and it locked completely. Scared the fuck out of me! But Matt was already pulling away on into the HS, so i decided to gingerly cross the street and use only the rear brake. So i jump off and tell him what happened and ask him to ride mine and check it out. Sure enough he locks up the front too.

We cant figure out what could be wrong. There is basically no feel at all. It's like you get past the initial lever travel, and when you should start to get some feel..... BAM! Completely locked......

thanks...
drain fluid and refill, always good to replace all your fluids after winter
