Brake pads/calipers sticking to the disk.
Post Body

Hi, I have been facing an issue with a bike since the past few weeks where the front wheel doesn't spin so freely. One of the pistons doesn't seem to be retracting back when the brake lever is released. I got it opened up and cleaned up. It was a struggle to remove one of the pistons but we had it out finally and cleaned the rubber rings and the pistons, applied some grease. Got the brake bleeding done. It seemed to be spinning all fine until a few days back when it started giving the same problem. I hear the brake squealing. Any idea what could be the issue? The pads were replaced by one of the mechanics but that didn't help either. Replacing the pads wasn't needed. Please help.
