Service Brakes · at 8,250 miles · reported Feb 3, 2020
While pulling into a parking lot at low speed the bike seemed to be dragging with very little free momentum. Upon inspection the rear tire was flat. After dismounting the cause of the flat was discovered to be that the tire valve stem was sheared completely off by the rear brake caliper, which had detached while the bike was in motion and impacted the valve stem.

If it would have contacted it while riding at speed the rear wheel could have locked up. A temporary bolt was installed by the owner to prevent any safety issues.

Restarting again, the bike seemed normal for a half mile or so, then the bike went into a slow driving mode and would not get any speed. Calling the shop -the tech manager advised me they had no way to pick up the bike…
