Re: Front brake pads problem

Yeah I mean the pads are catching the disc, it's as though after pulling the leaver the pads aren't moving back out enough, it's not bad it's just slightly but you can hear the rubbing on the disc. I have rode the bike after and that hasn't sorted it either...

Sounds alright to me bud, the pads don't move right away from the disk, otherwise you wouldn't get instant braking. But if you want you can give your disk and pads a wipe over with a clean cloth if you want, you might have a bit of dirt on them
