Hi, just got a touring bike with some cantis but I can't get the front one setup correctly.

Can someone point me in the right direction? I've attached a video of the problem, one of the brakes is always in contact with the wheel. I guess I need to do something very simple to fix this but after an hour of fiddling I can't work it out!

thanks

There should be a small screw on one of the arms which will enable you to adjust the spring tension and thus enable you to centre them properly.
Lots of videos available, such as here.
