Ugh, trying to sell this damn bike, went to ride her and keep her in good shape, and the rear brakes stopped working!!! Anyone know what the problem would be if the rear brake lever goes down all the way, and the pads dont make contact at all. I already checked for air in the lines, none. Either the caliper is frozen or my rear master cylinder is bad, I just dont want to spend 100 bucks on new master cylinder only to blow that one too because the caliper is frozen......any help on figuring out which one is the culprit?

if there is no air, it could be a defective brake line or corrosion in the caliper. gl justin.

shoot compressed air in the rear caliper see if it moves. but usually if the lever sinks and nothing happens its the master. i mean hydraulic pressure is much greater than air so i doubt the caliper is bad if it moves with air.
