loose. This is because the distance between the brake pad and the rear wheel becomes too small,
possibly leading to a blocked rear wheel.
Avoid applying too much force or stepping on the rear fender permanently. This may cause the fender
to loosen or damage the spring holding the fender.
As a result, the brake pad constantly touches the wheel and the motor temperature increases due to the
additional resistance. The rear tire can also get loose if the brake is in constant braking position.
Avoid constant braking. As a result, the tires will not only wear off, but also become hot. This will soften
