Brake problem
So i just replaced all the pads and rotars like 3 days ago and then on my ride home today my rear brake started smoking. i haven't taken the wheel off yet to look at it but from what i can see the pad and rotar look fine. i just want to know should i just get a new caliper or if there is any hope for it.

ROTAR!
No, really, they're fine. Just the new pads bedding in and degassing.
Unless it persists, then you'll need a new caliper or rebuild the one you have.
Take the wheel off the ground and see how easy it is to spin. If its tight, you have a sticking caliper.
