Title: Brake chatter
Post by: Voodoocars on December 20, 2007, 08:50 PM

Fitted a dia compe hombre to my bike with super soft grippy pads (Acor transparent pads).Stops really well but chatters like crazy-really loud.I've tried toeing the pads in a bit but still the same.I'm reluctant to change pads cause they work well.Any ideas.I've got the loudest bike in the park at the moment!

grease the ad mounts
that would help a bit

like you said toeing in the pads should help, if thats done correctly it can only be what rhys said...grease the lugs
