i seem to have an odd problem that i can't quite put my finger on...pulled my rear wheel/tire to get new rubber put on. reinstalled the wheel. went to go for a ride and it was hard to back out of my garage. pushed it back in put the rear end back up on the stand and tried to spin the rear wheel. it seemed to be binding. looked at the rear brake, it was grabbing with no force being applied to the lever. so i removed the caliper and inspected it, it seemed normal the front bolt (larger of the 2 i think it was 14 mm) was difficult to thread in, almost like it was binding. took it out and restarted it 3 times (im sure i was not cross threading). rear bolt went in with no issues and snugged up as it should...if i forced the front bolt to go all the way in it immediately caused the caliper to bind...i looked in the service manual to be sure that i didn't lose a spacer or something when i took it apart and found nothing. i'm sure that i have the correct bolts. when i took the caliper off i depressed the brake lever and the piston moves freely as it should. i also bled the brakes after i put it back together, didnt help. am i missing something here? any suggestions/ideas?


thanks
