Running into a SERIOUS issue here. I think the day they built mine, they got a bad batch of brake mounting posts. I had noticed a couple of the brake arms were a little on the tight side, but I am now noticing they're deforming when the mounting bolts are tightened down. As in tightening them just enough to hold the spring tension, is making the mounting posts out of round? This could render this frame useless, in a hurry. The right front brake cannot even be removed from the brake post, with the bolt removed. I am extremely disappointed right now. First time I have EVER run into this issue on any bike, ever.,,,,BD
