ok so i was gonna go ride my dirt bike the other day and when i tried to back it up... it would'nt move. the back wheel is like stuck, it won't move at all. its like the back brake is being pushed down as hard as possible. i can move it by skidding the back wheel and i and kno its in neutral. the only conclusion i came to was that the brake inside had swolen up and was pressing very hard. and the only way to fix that is to take the whole wheel apart. does anyone know what might be wrong with it?

thanks! =)

Hmmm... I haven't ever heard of pads swelling like that?

Does your brake pedal move freely and have the correct amount of free play? Was the rear wheel making any noise the last time you rode?
