Revolver Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 Sometimes on disc brakes the pads move, and it could be that. Make it do the sound, watch for any play. If it's the pads, you should see the disc move and nothing else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Dunstan Posted May 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 Any cracks or flex in the caliper? Not that I can see. I'll take it right off tonight. When I took the wheel off and put pressure on the caliper, it clicked still. Weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.Wood Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 They;re 2 part calipers if its a silver one - They have security torx keys to bolt them together iirc, try tightening/regreasing those bolts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirt jumper jake Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 Definitely the caliper. Cracked fork/caliper mount? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
