I've had my CD0.1 for 5 years and it's generally been really good to me, with the exception of the rear brakes. They constantly get gummed up and "stuck" after applying the brakes. In those cases I have to stop, dismount, and manually pull the rear brakes apart or they will rub on my rim very badly. I'm then left to finish my ride with only my front brakes until I can get them cleaned out (either by my local shop or occasionally I'll do the cleaning.)
So the CD0.1 has these 2 little set screws that screw into the frame as part of the brake setup. For the front brakes, these are never a problem. I have worked on my front brakes many, many times with no issue.
The rear brakes, however, are another story. One of the set screws has never... never... been usable. I didn't need to actually use the screw until _after_ the warranty was up. During bike check in at IMTX in 2017 I took it to the QR booth because my rear brakes were rubbing (this was the first occurrence of this problem) and the QR tech said that the screw is stuck permanently and it's part of the frame... so there's nothing they can do. He was able to (with much difficulty) get my brakes working again. It took him, _the_ QR bike tech at least 30 minutes to simply take the brakes off and put them back on.
Now, 13 days before IM Cozumel, my rear brakes are rubbing again. When I go to take the rear set screw out that has been working, the hex key just spins. It's stripped out just like the other one.
So I'm guessing that I'm pretty much SOL, no? Anyone have _any_ experience with these CD0.1 brakes that could give me some pointers?
