My shiny new bike has shiny new disc brakes: BB7 roads.
Mechanical klutz that I am I read all the tips, watched the video on you tube and still they rub!.
I dialled the adjusters in so that the pads were close enough to the rim so that the brakes were "on", then three clicks on the outboard agjustment knoband three on the inboard (although the inboard do not seem to "click" to the same extent as the outboard) and they still rub, if I keep dialing out then by the time the rub is eliminated the pads are a long way out and the levers have a LOT of travel.
So should I just dive down the nearest hill brakes on and wear the rub away or persevere with the fine tuning
