New to disc brakes and having problems , I cannot stop them rubbing - it’s only slightly , but it’s driving me mad . SRAM rival 160 if that makes any difference . So far I have - took wheel out , cleaned protruded pistons and pushed back as far as they would go ( a lot better than they were but still binding ) - I’ve loosened calipers , pressed brakes and tightened up while pressing levers ( no different ) - under hood there is a hex bolt to release levers a bit - done that both ways , one way made me have to press brake lever harder to stop but still ribbed when released . I have never bled disc brakes and don’t know if this is the answer so any advise as to what to do next would be very much appreciated, don’t want to do something that isn’t necessary, all these other things I just looked up on YouTube but can’t find answer to this !
