Check the cable in the front the cable might has fallen off the front pulley if the cable does not pull the cable fell off

I don't think there's a pulley on the rs model...

Are you talking about the arm that bolts to the back of the caliper with a big nut?

Try this
If you took the nut off the arm that the brake cable pulls, and the arm fell off the splined shaft, no problem. Ignore the cable for now. Put the arm on, and twist. If you feel it applying the brake, you are in the ballpark. If you feel nothing, remove the arm, rotate it, and slip it back on. Feel it apply the brake while twisting. Sometimes, it is a matter of one spline at a time until you feel it is in the friction zone. Once that is good, put the cable on, and adjust the cable and locknuts until it works again. No panic, nothing you can't fix. Use wheel chocks until it is fixed so it does not roll away!
call if you need help. Joe
