Why does my rear brake squeal when slowing down but immediately stops making noise when I pedal? I assume it squeals because it's dirty and vibrates but the pedaling while braking making it quiet doesn't make much sense - the disc is still rotating, why does it suddenly stop the noise? Is it actually the cassette contributing to the vibration or some weird shit or what?
Suspect that it's because you're applying a more even load across the hub, so there's not as much twisting force being applied to only one side. I'm not an engineer though, so it could of course just be witchcraft.

Confuzzled.
