I have this same problem. Basically what happens from constant city riding, your brakes (rear in this case) develop a film on the pads which when grinding against the rotor, squeel like hell.

The solution is to take it somewhere you use the rear brake alot and smoothly. For me it is when I go to any curvy roads or canyons. That fixes it for about 2 weeks. Then the problem slowly creeps back.
