Disk brake adjustment?
To disable ads, please log-in.
On my rear disk brake (Hayes mechanicals), the inner pad is ever so slightly rubbing the disk causing a squealing sound. It isn't dragging, per se, only touching just enough to produce the squeal.
Is it possible to adjust the centering of the pads?
Thanks!
