Hello! I'm a year into cycling and I'm still figuring everything out. I was cleaning my bike on a stand the other day and noticed a problem. I spun my front wheel and it spun, and spun, and spun. Then my rear wheel. It spun for maybe ten seconds then stopped. I'm assuming this is not normal. Obviously the brakes are too close, but how could his have happened. Thanks in advance!

BTW. IF the brake pads are not touching the rims when the calipers are open AND there is a visible gap between the pads & rim, then the brake pads may not be too close.
