If you installed new brake pads did you bleed the brakes ? Try breaking the bleeder loose and see if it spins.

All good suggestions, but single post problems are mostly trolls...

What is to gain? I think having a question or problem brings people to forums.

Either they figure out, feel dumb or just not nice enough share with us. Or give up and bring to shop and doesn't want to tell us

No doubt it's time to Triple Check ... Twice hasn't provided a solution ... As I ( and others ) mentioned earlier examining the rear brake assy is where I would start

Yup but you are a complete ******* if you start a thread about a problem and then disappear instead of posting about the resolution of the problem to help other people with the same issue...

I am a hole? But I don't see the worse in people.

Guy asked a question. Try to help a fellow rider.
