    What causes the rear brake caliper to rub on the top (edge) of the brake rotor while in a right hand turn? It has happened a few times in the past but today with the ol lady it was real loud and annoying. I stopped to take a look at it but I didn't see anything dangerous going on so we just road back home.

    Anybody have this problem ?

    Sorry ! False alarm. It turned out to be the new Progressive shocks rubbing on the pulley when I crank them up to the top notch for two up riding today.

    Thanks anyway. And yes the brake still rubs but it's not that bad. Just an old worn out bike.:D
