Hello, having some big stress with my new Shimano XT rear brake. It’s on a On One Inbred with Hope Ti-Glide rear hub – which means the disc is slightly thicker than modern ones.
I fitted and set the brakes up Friday and there was zero rub – I was amazed as my old Juicys always had a wee bit of drag. Went the Quantocks yesterday, and there was a tiny bit of rub (wheel removed while in car) and it was fine. Put the wheel back in when I got home yesterday, and the wheel only turns with a lot of force. I have loosened the bolts to realign the calliper, but it always drags. I have also pushed the pistons out, and set it from that. Removed pads and there’s nothing obviously wrong. Pistons appear to move equally when the brake is applied. I have also checked the wheel is in the dropouts properly, and that too us fine.
So, oh wizened hive, what can I do? Thanks!
