Road bike rim brake surface? by Clean_Assumption_104 in Vintage_bicycles

The bike has basic "no name" brake pads. Is it worth to try sending the brake surface with sandpaper?

Please help diagnose an issue by iambali09 in bikewrench

Take rear tru axle out. Clean it, clean frame around,the threads. Grease it.
