    Remove, clean & lubricate the pivot bolt – easy, free & only takes 5 minutes.

    Yeah my Oro’s did that. Just a quick spray of WD40 sorted it.

    My mono 4 kinda did that but the brake locked on but the lever went back in position, So a trip to hope yesterday and the seals have expanded and locked the pistons!! (Due to the wrong brake fluid being used) grr Hope I can pick it up today!?

    Can also happen if you spray the pivot area with certain lubes too, some are mineral based and cause the seals to swell and stick. Unlikely on yours as it’s returning when you flick the lever back though, as said above it’s probably a stiff pivot.
