Jack Morton Posted September 6, 2009 Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 Ride around with you're brake half on ( on enough for the pad's are touching the rim.. but not so much that you can't pedal ) , It makes a horriable noise but should clear it up after 10 minutes i'd say.

Dale-Hill Posted September 6, 2009 Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 Get a cloth/scrubbing pad, and some warm water, and clean it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
