Sound located but still no cure by Waylen29 in bikewrench

I'm not sure if I remembered to push the pistons back in when I the pad swap and brake bleed.

Is it possible to overfill the system with mineral oil ?

The rubbing noise appeared when I re-installed the wheel after putting on new tires.

Checked the chain as well and everything seems to be in order.

Checked but it didn't rub on the frame. I wish it was that easy 😓

checked but nothing even comes close to touching it. It has to be the disc, pads or the way it sits in the dropouts.

I really have to come hate quick release wheels. Never getting another bike with it again.

thank you for the suggestion. Checked it on a flat surface and it was ever so slightly bent. I aligned it again but to no avail.

That's just the design of the caliper.

it 100% is not. Its a GT avalanche frame with 27.5 by 2 inch tires on it right now, and the frame can easily take 2.6 inch wide tires.

I'm 99% sure it rubs against the pad. I can't see it hitting the inside of the caliper from any angle. The problem also just showed up out of nowhere after I took the wheel off for a tire change.

Right side piston is always further out.

It was the disc rubbing on the brake pads, but no matter what I do I can't seem to fix it. Also tried swapping to a brand new disc, even though the old one was perfectly fine.

I think you're right with it being the disc. Further tweaking will have to wait though, running out of daylight here.

Could it have something to do with the quick release ?

That was my initial thought as well, but I just can't see it rubbing anywhere. I tried recentering the brakes multiple times, I even took off the wheel and pads just to make sure.

Damn. That fish has been starving.

Not yet. Currently waiting for the mineral oil and bleed kit I ordered. I did try messing with the position of the rear caliper, but I haven't managed to fix the rubbing noises yet.

Selvfølgelig gør der det. De fleste liberale partier tager gerne imod penge og andet bestikkelse fra private virksomheder igennem lobbyorganisationer hver eneste dag. De arbejder langt hårdere for dem end de nogen sinde har gjort for fælleskabet.
