Commonly odd people come into the store and complain that their brakes are rubbing. Now,
you can see that this wheel is not spinning freely as the rim is touching the brake pads.
Further more this customer is complaining that when they do use the brakes, besides
them rubbing a lot they also squeak. The main reason for brake squeaking is maladjusted
brake pads along here. In the case of this pad, we see that the back part of it is touching
the rim before the front part. So it is not correctly towed in. Properly towed in brake
pads, this part the leading edge of the pad should be touching first, that slight gap
should be at the back. So we are going to readjust that, I will show you the proper
angle that the brake pad should be at to avoid squeaking.
