I took my bike to the "Bike Doctor" service at Milton Park yesterday, saying that my brake disc was making intermittent rubbing noises and could he have a look.
When I collected it, it wasn't spinning freely, but he said it was the brushes that hold the crudracer mudguard in place.
This morning, I removed said mudguard and rode to work - the intermittentness of the rubbing had been cured - it now rubbed ALL THE FSCKING TIME!
When I got to work I removed and refitted the wheel and the problem was the same, so I re-aligned the caliper again. It's now centred and silent.
There is a minor issue in that you centre it, nip the bolts up, check, tighten a little, check, and then if you do the last half turn from "quite tight" to "definitely tight enough" it moves the damn caliper and I'm back to the rubbing again. Maybe I need another washer - will check with Broken Spoke this weekend...
Aside from that, nice ride - cold but sunny. Met someone on a steel Genesis who said he was doing a ride to the coast on it tomorow evening - I have now forgotten where!
Cheers
