Rear breaks keep locking up.....

(1/3) > >>

Well the title says it.  After about an hour or so of riding i notice i get less and less play with the rear break pedal and eventually they lock up completely.  I have to loosen the bleeder screw to relieve the pressure.  My first thought was there was too much break fluid  in the resivoir but I wont know till I ride it again.  Im just looking for anyones input or if anyone else has experienced this kind of problem before.

Hillclimb#42:
Did you just put new pads on?

joetaco87:
Yea, they had about 2 or 3 rides before this problem first came about.  I also drowned the bike completely underwater but they worked on the next ride.

BDI:
Have you tried changing the fluid out.

joetaco87:
I did when i got back from the last ride. It was new fluid but like i said the bike was completly underwater at one point after i did the breaks.  Im going riding tommorrow so ill let every1 know if it was the fluid or not.
