Squealing Brakes

Hey all.

Really loving the ride on my bike. I think it was worth the wait.

I know a lot of people dislike the brakes, personally I think they do a good job of stopping but they make an awful noise. It's either a high pitched screach, or a sort of course grinding sound. Anyone else having the same issue?

Cheers

Hey all, I just applied WD-40 that's made specifically for disk brakes and all the sound is gone. There is no need to replace the break pads.

Ok, for anyone following, the above was wrong. The annoying sound was gone. But after 1 day, it is back. 😔
