Ok, I know what you mean now, down by the wheel not at the lever. No that is not loose. In fact the whole brake assembly is very tight there, tight enough that the brake arm hardly moves at all and the drum brake is rubbing on the wheel. The cable isn’t relaxing and releasing properly… I can’t figure out if it’s because the brake arm is stuck somehow or if it’s because the problem at the lever is pulling tension on the cable. I’ll try bringing it to my local shop sometime this week.
