Cg125's have had hydraulic disks fitted for a long time and they were uprated to 240mm in 04

If in doubt, get it done by a professional who knows what they are doing. What part of the country you in?

If its a genuine Honda?

There are a wide range of different options/specifications on the myriad CG clones that have appeared since the original Honda line/tooling was sold to China. IIRC the later Honda GCs came-off the Brazillian line?

I have searched everywhere on how to slacken the brake cable but found nothing.

Looks like I got the wrong end of the stick. From what the OP said above I assumed it was a cable brake.

If it's a hydraulic system and the brake is sticking on, this can only be one of three things:

• Sticking piston/s in caliper (most likely)
• Fault in master cylinder where fluid is not bleeding back as it should (less likely)
• Brake hose degraded and breaking up internally, acting like a one-way valve (unlikely, but I read of this on another forum only this week).

It really needs a professional mechanic or an experienced DIYer to sort this out. Brakes are too important to leave to chance.
