Hey guys,
Just wondering if any of you have had the same problem as me? My Hayes hydraulics are squeaking like mad when ever I apply pressure to them, even when just walking the bike along (pressing the lever obviously) I think the squeaks are a result of moisture being absorbed by the pads after leaving the bike outdoors for a week. I had to do this on holiday - it was warm weather though and whenever it rained I kept the bike covered, but could the squeaks be a result of moisture being absorbed into the pads from the air? I have taken the pads out to check for wear and they look fine and have lots of life left in them, I have also wiped the discs to remove any pad build up.
Does anyone have any suggestions to get rid of the squeak or will it just be a matter of trying to ride it out?
Cheers,
Will
