Did you end up releasing a video where you show how to disassemble the brake mechanism? I think my binding may have lead to something physically breaking inside (cable?). Can't figure out how to get into the system without drilling out some rivets.
How can I fix the brake pin? The brake pin is not retracting when flipping the brake flip. After watching this video I removed the brake and check but the problem is the pin not moving. Please help!!!
Hello, thanks for the video. I have a hand me down older uppa baby Cruz. It’s the one with one push down brake on the bar. It seems like either that part will not push down, or the brake lock won’t engage within the wheel. I tried to take off the part where the brake lock is but could not. Unfortunately I do not have a stroller repair person near me. Any ideas on what I can do to fix this? I also tried a little WD-40.
No, unfortunately. But this is a rotation-based system, so usually this is just rust or grit inside. Lots of lubrication and working the system on and off (pushing the pin as well) will probably fix it. :)
Hi Any chance you can do a video showing how to repair the brake itself - one of the brakes won’t go back inside and not activating so one wheel is constantly locked - any advice please?

Second part to this video would be greatly appreciated.
Amazing vid! A lot of people give up on their broken strollers but with a bit of grit and skill, many people can get it fixed!
Thanks to this video I've just gone and fixed my babystyle oyster 2 🎉❤😅 Thanks for the advice x

I am having the same problem. Any advice would be great
What do we do if the pin doesn’t want to retract back in?
thank you, you saved me $, I was about to buy another stroller but I tried this and break was fixed immediately
I haven't been able to find the follow up repair video to this one, did you make one? Thanks

Dont leave us hanging! I need to know how to open this thing so i can fix the brake pin not retracting.
Do you have a video on repairing the brake mechanism? The brake on one wheel in my uppababy Cruz is stuck on - won’t release.
No, unfortunately. But this is a rotation-based system, so usually this is just rust or grit inside. Lots of lubrication and working the system on and off (pushing the pin as well) will probably fix it. :)
