I just had my Wee in the shop. The mech told me that when he pushed the bike into the shop the rear wheel slid on the floor. My back brake was hanging up. He lubed and cleaned the caliper, and if it happens again I should get a rebuild kit for the rear caliper. He said he has seen this issue before on Stroms.
He was mistaken. Before you buy that rebuild kit get a pair of snap ring pliers (they are cheeper) and pull the brake peddle off the pivot shaft. Clean and lub the shaft. Probably fix the problem right up.
I've had this issue with the gear shift also. Seems the factory lub can become pretty gunky and sticky over time and cause the peddles to stick.
