    I also had one side a bigger gap and one side rubbing, so I removed wheel and pads then I opened the the caliper pistons all the way. Then held back the piston that was rubbing and with the lever pumped the other piston out too the correct width. It was better but finally I noted my system was over filled. i just mention it as this was my process and my brakes are perfect now Formula has good youtubes on bleeding and it works. but like i said first check with bleed block I would say that is step one Hope it helps I'm no expert be I do my own bleeding and my brakes work well

    And why not .... I think it would be really fun to ride I'm planning on putting the baby seat on the back and cruz around. So if you can afford it ...... it will be fun and is that not why we cycle?

    I hope it does take off they are so COOL. I ordered my fatboy can't wait. Next would be to arrange some trips in Namib desert. I have been talking to the 4x4 guys there and they are keen on doing a fat bike desert run. Please PM me if you are keen on something like that

    Just need to take some time and adjust 100%. Loosen the two caliper bolts and move caliper till nothing touches. Make sure rotor is not bend. If this all fails you could have too much brake fluid in the system if you have the bleed block make sure your spacing is correct (did you recently added any or serviced the brakes) If you are technical you could release some fluid via the bleed port by installing the bleed block. If you are not sure what I'm talking about I would suggest taking it to your LBS.

    I'm running 1x11 with 30T and love it but I always hated a front D so 1x11 works for me. I must ad it is harder between the gears (compared to 2x10)
