Brakes lobsided??
This is sometihng I've never really came across until recently.
For some reason the one pad always sits closer than the other, and everytime I pull the brakes, the non-drive side (side with the cable) gets closer and the drive side gets further away from the wheel (upon release).
So by the end of a ride the brakes keep rubbing and i have to pry the pad away from the rims.
Suggestions as to how to stop this?
Both brakes are Tiagra at the moment, and I have even tried replacing the whole caliper.. Am i missing something??

There's an adjustment screw.
Here's Shimano's tech document.
See point 4, Centring of the brake shoe

Just wondering how you do this on a '08 Specialized Allez Int'l as I don't have my instruction book with me.
It's the one with Ultralight Dual Pivot Brakes0 -
I'm sure it'll be similar to the Shimano link above...0
