Ok.
I haven't used my bike for a while. I tried to use it today, pumped up the tyres and the back wheel wont move. The disc pad has seazed totally. I took the wheel off and the pads move normally when applying the brake but the adjuster is stuck solid..
Anyone have any ideas. I suspect the pressure needs to be realesed somehow but I don't know how.
For info the bike is a Giant XTC3 like this one http://www.freewebs.com/aschwinkruders/ ... %20001.jpg if it helps.
Thanks.

If the pads were seized to the disc, how did you get the wheel off, i'm a little lost at what you mean TBH.0
