I just put on my disk wheel for the first time and the wheel just barely rubs the brake pad on one side. The other side has quite a bit of room between the brake and wheel. Is there any way to shift the brake system over so the wheel is more centered or even more ideally, is there a way to increase the width between the brake pads so there is more room on that side?

ahhhh...never mind, thanks to the Zinn and the Art of Road Bike Maintenance, I was able to figure out how to adjust the brakes! Now time to go test out the new wheel!
