Clicking when rear Shimano 600 brake is used?
Whenever I use the rear N600 Shimano single-pivot brake I get a clicking sound. I checked the tighteness of the mounting bolt and the brake pad holders. The harder the brake is apllied the louder tthe clicking is. Any ideas what's causing this?

Cheers Depends on what you mean but I've had a sort of ticking sound from a brake when there was a pit or something on my rim. Usually a rub down with a wet stone helped. If you have the bike on a rack and spin the wheel with the brake pressed can you reproduce the sound? |

Also see if the arms move fore/aft from a loose centerbolt adjustment. On the 6207 series caliper that's adjusted off the bike. Flip the spring up out of the way, taking care not to fling the nylon slides across the room. Oil pivots and adjust for smooth operation with no play, lock it and then flip the spring back into place. -- Andrew Muzi www.yellowjersey.org/ Open every day since 1 April, 1971 |

If the clicking is now gone chances are that your rim is about to go kablouie. Don't let it get to that point, a relative did but luckily nothing bad happened except for a loud kaboom. I have Shimano 600 brakes on my road bike and they have never made any noises. Except for the rubbery PHSEEEEEEEE from the front when I have to brake hard. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ |

You get a lot of that kablouie stuff don't you? lol. My bet would be an easily repaired blemish on the rim or a brake adjustment as Andrew suggested.
