Does anyone know how to keep the brakes locked? They lock when the levers are held, but I can't find how to keep them locked when let go.

If you pull down on the brakes, they will lock in place. I hope that helps!

Everytime I was using my brakes or coming to a stock <10MPH, my ABS would go off. I replaced one, thought I had the correct side but didn't :( Swapped the other out and I was good to go! They are a pain to do since the body of them are plastic and get stuck in your housing... Be gentle.

My brakes DO NOT hold when the button is pressed to hold. What can I do ot make the brakes hold?

To lock the brake, push brake lever away from handle bar until it is locked in place. Keep in mind that you can manually use the hand brake when not in lock brake position. This unit is a wonderful unit.

Just push down on the little levers under the handle grips.Squeeze together to release brake.

had the same problem - if with the lock/unlock switch on the front is in the unlock position and it still does not unlock when you hit the foot pedal check the spring inside. mine was unhooked.

Yes, you squeeze the handle lever up to put on brakes and push down the lever to lock them.

yes after you squeeze the handle there is a button you press in that locks the brakes to release squeeze the handle again.

No I have never had a problem with the brake lever. We have used it on a gravel road even. I really like this stroller and think its great!

There are two brake levers for each brake. Two small ones on the top of the steering bar, so big ones behind the curve of the handles (you are going to use them while leaning on it).I used the small ones once, because the right big lever broke.

B: I'm not wise enough to retrieve the photos regarding your inquiry. I would suggest articles by Sheldon Brown (now deceased) at Harris Cyclery. This author explains the details of brake systems and the various levers which can mount to the bars and ends you may have.

I just pushed in the lever/release valve on the wheel and it unlocked and once I had it shoved all the way back I released the lever and both wheels locked into place. You don't push down on the lever to release the lock, you push it IN horizontally. The instructions said to just push the wheel onto the axel and that just did not work. Have to push in the little metal lever on the wheel base first

We locked ours with a small padlock through the hole in the post that goes though cent of wheel. It prevents the bar from turning.

I just replaced the brakes and kept the old hand levers. The previous brakes were the same model (plastic spring covers had broken).

I assume it's locked up also? I'd contact the maker. They seem concerned that their product works well. They responded to my review about the poorly designed locking mechanism so they might just send you a replacement. Worth a shot!

Hi Petar. I agree with AZ_sobo. Generally I almost always just hold the lever while putting air. It's a very strong spring on the lever so if you can get a good seal it will hold it good if you don't want to hold it.

the brakes don't really lock, they really don't work all that well. It is a safety issue if you decide to use it that way, but once you start using it, you will find out that there's a way to do it without hurting yourself! It's not meant to be used as a stationary support.
