Hi,
I just rebuilt both calipers: put the new seals in, cleaned the pistons and cylinders, used the old pistons and pads.
When I put the calipers back the wheel was spinning slightly touching the pads. then I put fresh break liquid and bled air. The breaks seem to work now but the wheel doesn't spin freely. I can move it with hand but it doesn't spin.
Is this not normal?

I'm still working on the bike, it's on the stand both wheels up, so i can' test drive it yet.

thanks for the advise.
