Bled brakes and changed fluid yesterday. Caliper fine. Goes rhonk rhonk rhonk (warped brake rotor noises). Piston stuck some last year and I think it's catching up with it. I can still ride, not an issue. Just annoying hearing Rhonk Rhonk Rhonk. 1 1

docc Posted September 9, 2022 Author Posted September 9, 2022 5 minutes ago, Randy said: Nope. Most "warped rotors" I have encountered turned out to be more about the pads and the uneven distribution of resins onto the rotor surface. Does this occur riding or just rolling the bike around? Only backward? 2

Yet, even if things were balmy and dry here, my middle name is Rainer (pronounced the way Reiner usual is). My German mother had a Weimar-era adolescent crush on Rainer Maria Rilke, so that “boy named Sue” sort of name has been part of me since the beginning. So, it is SpineRainer every time I come here!
