Rad Rover Brakes rub when turning
Hi Guys! I have a new Rad Rover that I just put on 115 miles on. The bike seemed nicely tuned and set up when I received it. Recently overt he past 15 miles I get a loud squeaking/rubbing sound on the right tire when turning to the right. If I p[ump the front disc brakes several times the noise seems to cease until I turn right in a fairly loose turn. I adjusted the brakes several times but that doesn't seem to help - It doesn't squeak or rub when riding straight or turning left. All the spokes seem similarly tight although I haven't tested the numbers with a tension meter. I haven't gone off road or deformed the rim at all so not sure what's up.

Any chance that you didn't remount the tire and tighten it at 90 Degree angle, tire running perpendicular to the ground?

Can't imagine it happening with that beefy frame, but on some flimsy bikes the fork could distort enough to allow rubbing; doubt it but was the brake cable moved so it pulls when you turn?
