Ben John-Hynes Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Have you ever pulled the lever without the disk being in between the pads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 If its all the time, then the rotor may not be parallel to the mount. In this case the mount needs to be faced. orrr You could have a sticky piston that is causing one pad to drag on the rotor . orrrr The caliper needs to be moved away from the rotor and centralised ( this should be relatively easy to spot ) The rotor should be runing back in the middle of the cut-out in the caliper.

AlexxRogers Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Jordan, is it my old hope? If so, the rotor came bent, you just have to bend it back where it rubs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
