Adjust the parking brake at the rear wheel. There should be a hole in the rotor (possibly covered by a rubber plug) that allows access to the star adjustment for the parking brake spring. Use a flathead screwdriver to click the adjustment up or down. Good practice is tighten the spring until it grabs (can't spin the rotor freely) and then back it off a couple of clicks.
