Matt repaired the rear wheels and the brakes but his biggest problem was the third wheel - it would not lock. How he repaired the thing was pure genius. He just removed a pin and then wiggled it a little and then the thing worked.

Seized engine (for replacement) or just a busted bearing for PTO clutch
This post watched a video of a lawn mower that does not turn. The battery was juiced up and oil was added. Still the engine would stop. There was a heavy resistance in its turning.
Here we see the importance of past experience and critical thinking. The mechanic postulated it could be the PTO clutch assembly And true enough, there was a busted bearing that made it hard for the engine to turn. When the clutch was removed (and consequently the bearing replaced) the engine turned well.
Great repairs. Great savings for the lawn mower owner

2. Carbon frames
3. Brakes
4. Chain ring.
You keep the bike still looking good.
The vid is its use on cars:

It could be due to the intercooler. Signs of defective intercooler: black soot and oil at the underside from the leak.
