During the trials, we have found out that she is not sometimes willing to turn. It looks like the one or both brakes lost their effectivity temporarily. Usually it happens after few miles or ride, brake drums are relatively hot, but still can hold a hand on it without the problem.
When cold she turns freely and on the spot, so I think it must be connected with the brake pads temperature.
However, brakes and linkages are adjusted according to the spec. Certainly it will need some tuning, maybe I should loosen the brakes for one click, to keep them colder. Will see.
