Re: brake noise

It's probably the new pads not broke in with the glazed rotor. I had some that groaned a year before they finally got quiet.
I'm not sure what the "glaze" consists of, maybe the binder that holds some pads material together.
I guess the rotor glaze could be cut by lightly sanding them with some 320 sanding discs just enough to take the shine off.
