Default brake noise

ok so earlier this evening i had to make a rapid(not emergency)stop an my front brake made a strange noise kind of like a loud strained mouse squeak is this something i should be concerned about i had new pads an disc placed about 2 months ago though within the last few days the front wheel brakes have been startinhg to catch just slightly when i have been turning the bike round in the garden (i can hear it wthout the engine running) though it doesnt seem to affect peformance an i presume i should be able to take back to the garage for a check cheers
(bit of a bike noob only past test in march bin a car driver 17 years all advice welcome an taken)
cheers lee

Default Re: brake noise

you need to start worrying if that noise suddenly stops when youre braking lol.....

nah , sounds like your calipers might need a bit of clean as they may be starting to stick a little, ie not returning out fully when you let go of the lever, its a common things and a clean to the calipers usually sorts it, lots of advice on here on what to do, but as always, if you dont know what youre doing, seek professional advice............
