Anyone have any ideas on how I can eliminate the howling, chirping & just plain noisy Saint brakes?
I have tried the following:
Replaced the rotors
Replaced the pads
Clreaned & overhauled the calipers
Swapped out the caliper adapter @ rear (was 7", went down to no adapter 6")
All of the above was done by the Shimano tech guys @ Sea Otter, They also suggested that I reface the calipers to my frame---which I had my LBS perform last week.
----Still howls & chirps like the monkey exhibit @ the zoo when I ride.
My frame is a stock Trek Session 88 with the Saint Brakes F & R.
The Shimano guys hinted that the prob might be due to Trek design of the frame.
I spoke with Trek & they say they are running resin pads on all of their race bikes to eliminate the problem but they are special prototype Shimano pads not available to the public.
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
