Does anyone know what's up with my brakes? I have a 2012 Devinci copenhagen hybrid and it has disc brakes, Avid Elixir 1.

I previously had an issue where I was riding on a hot day and the rear brake locked up. I carried the bike back home and the only thing I could do to release the rear brake was turn the nut that connected the brake line to the caliper to release some gas/air.

I took the bike back to the shop and they bled the brakes and everything was fine. I rode the bike a few times and then parked it for ~6 months. Now today as I tried to get the bike ready for riding, the rear brakes are locked up again.

Does anyone know why this keeps happening?
