Hi
Might seem like a daft question...but how do you remove a U-brake?
I have undone the long bolts from each side, each brake arm twists freely but they don't simply slide off as I expected. I can see a small pin sticking out that looks like a spring but can't work out what I should do to get the brake arms off?
I'm plan to 'caustic soda' out the seat post soon and don't want to unintentionally melt the u-brake!
Thanks for any advice!
