• Just wanted to check something before I drive myself mad trying to silence a very minor noise coming from my bike.

    Rotors with lots of holes (more hole than metal) - is a clicking/catching noise something you just have to live with or fixable? Never had this problem with Shimano rotors and others in the past. Everything's all bedded in and I'm not getting the noise from the rear (same rotor and caliper). Thanks!

    I UTFS'd but couldn't see anything so apologies if a repeat.

  • Bent rotor? Rotor bolts not tight enough? Misaligned caliper? Unevenly worn pads? Loose caliper bolt? Worn pads?

    Nope, holes in rotor isn't the issue.

  • Yeah, almost certainly an alignment issue.

    @nejib have you tried undoing the caliper bolts and re-aligning the caliper? Worth taking the pads out, give them a light scrub with sandpaper and reinstall.

    Is the noise constant or only when applying the brake?
