I've just followed the write up to fix my fork oil leak. It took sometime but I managed to remove the forks, drain oil and put them back. When I put things back together I've a problem. After I put the brake caliper back, I realized that the rotor was very far away from 1 side of the brake pad, so even when I applied the brake, that pad did not touch the rotor. What did I do wrong ?
