This is what happend to my brake after a day of trail running.What you are seeing is the broken remains of the parking brake cable I hit somthing hard and if you look at photo 3 you will notice that this cable is bolted down on the soft plastic undercarrige of the buggy and also the cable connected to the brass fitting on the top just be below the main brake line where it connected to an aduster bolt leading to the left side of the brake caliper.As you can see the bolt was snapped off by force of impact,I also lost the tension spring.Manco chose a poor way of bolting down the cable on the flexable plastic allowing it to do this type of damage. mancoman
