    went for a decent cycle this morning and leaving the house everything was ok with bike but when I got back and was wheeling the bike through the house i could hear the rear brake pad rubbing off the wheel rim and was giving a bit of resistence when i tried to spin the wheel. Some one be able to give me an idea of what causes this?

    A pothole? A bump? Could be various reasons. Check if the brake is tight enough and adjust it in the center.

    Check for loose/broken spokes and tighten gently if possible and see if the rubbing stops. This is called truing and if you are concerned any bike store can do it for you
