Front disk brakes were fine, if in need of new pads. Changed the pads and now one side is constantly rubbing the disk. Any ideas (short of bleeding which I have no idea how to do)
CHeers
Take the pads out. Push both pistons back into the caliper body as far as they will go using a plastic tyre lever or similar. Undo the caliper mounting bolts slightly to allow it to be moved across until centred evenly over the disc. Reinstall the pads.
Operate the brake, squeezing the lever a few times until the pads have moved out to meet the disc again and the disc and the lever feels normal. The pads should move in evenly. If not then you've got a sticky piston.
This should help too!:
