Squealing Avid brakes

Thanks to all who answered. Sounds like I'll be looking into new brakes, I
don't want to be stuck having to use one brand of pads or wear earplugs when
I ride.

Koolstops can squeal, too.

There is no "can" to it. Koolstop salmon pads DO SQUEAL. Another post
mentioned Avid brakes as being notorious for squealing. If this is
true, then adding Koolstop salmon pads to them would make them a
masochistic instrument. And a sadistic instrument if you ride with
others.


I have Avid 6's on my tourer. In my case, Koolstops /did/ fix the
squeal. YMMV....
fixed mine, too
