Title: Front break free sound
Post by: moto on August 30, 2021, 13:58:56 PM
Hello

I replaced the new brake pads and cleaned the brake shoe and lubricated the brake shoe pins.
Is there something wrong when the brakes make a slight abrasive sound when I spin the front tire without pressing a break lever.

Below is a youtube link to a video where you can hear it. The sound is only heard at a certain point in the ring. Put volume up so you can hear the sound;

Don't worry about it. the brake rotors are "flat" within tolerances. This is a normal sound with disc brakes, and also with some types of drum brakes.
