|   Question to any Magura tech's (calling MCM's) | SirF
Mar 31, 2002 2:40 PM | | Been riding a set of 2000 Clara's for about a year now. Just installed on new fork and have now developed very loud shreeks while ridding.
Recommendations of simple cures?

Make sure all bolts are tight, spokes are of high tension and that the QR is quite tight too.
Failing that I'd clean off the rotor with isopropyl alcohol and sand off the pads and break 'em in all over again.

I'll try with the basics though, thanks for the tip.

| Ah ha! That's what Thor does with the styrofoam peanuts......... | Mr. Tokyo
