Default Re: Brakes Siezing

I agree with rich b. The first thing I would check is the master cylinder's piston is returning all the way back against the keeper, possibly from the rod being adjusted too tight. There needs to be a little gap so that when the piston comes back it uncovers the return port for the fluid, otherwise the brakes will lockup and stay locked up until the pressure slowly bleeds off.
