"la ligne la plus petite que vous arrivez à déchiffrez clairement"

I don't understand why déchiffrer is in the "vous" form here. Surely after "arrivez à" it should be in the infinitive ? Or does "Arriver à" behave differently from most verbs with à after them ?

Thank you for pointing this out, Jim, I have fixed the typo I think. Let me know if there's still a problem.

I believe there is a grammatical error.
