Does anyone know if there is supposed to be a spring on the rear brake cable at the rear wheel that maintains tension on the brake lever? it's it a 1987, if that makes any differance.
I have seen some bikes that look like they have a spring, and some that don't.
The issue that I'm having is. When I press the rear pedal, the rear brake grabs fine, but as you release pressure on the pedal, you get a twang, that sounds like the shoes are snapping back in to place.
I do have new shoes coming, in the mean time I cleaned the hub assembly of all the brake dust and have lubed the pivot points.
Thoughts/Recommendations? Thanks in advance.
