I had this problem too, but it was only noticable when the pads were installed during final assembly. Previously I had assembled the rotors onto the axles and tightened the calipers onto the caliper mounting brackets, but without the pads. Everything seemed ok then. After careful inspection I found a very small area on the rotor that was contacting the caliper with metal to metal contact. I could barely turn the rear wheels. It was not apparant until the pads were installed into the calipers. A small touch with a rotary burr made it all right.
If you are using rotors with an internal drum type e-brake check their adjustment too.
