the problem is the button, a mate has put a dodgy one there because i never had the original button.
i have to use two hands to let it offat the best of time. sometimes i cant even get it

Do you have to use two hands because the button is hard, or because the brake is too tight? You can loosen it off at the back wheel... Or get a new assembly. The button is only to release the ratcheting stop and release the brake...

The button was too tight, tok everything apart last night, turned out there was a bead stuck in there that was stopping it from going the whole way.
now i need to tighten the cable.
