Pete.M Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Clean up the rim and pads maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials owns Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 (edited) meant to do that , so you have recently changed the pads? its a different compound that makes the brakes stronger but has the squeak (most riders like loud brakes!)

BradJohnson Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 loud brakes are the best! Nothing better than annoying the neighbors, I even put tar on too, my brake are very loud! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 quiet stealth bikes for the win! although with Maguras it's unlikely you'll get a quiet brake that works well or a good brake that's quiet unfortunately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F.N.G Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 (edited) Keep them on, You will see that louder brake pads are generally better. I had quiet ones that did not work too well so then I got some loud Rockmans They work a charm. but to be honest When It gets really loud I don't like it either.
