About 6 weeks ago I purchased a new HT with Elixir 5 Brakes. Since the first ride the rear has constantly "squealed" and sent a vibration thru the rear end when braking. The rear rotor is 160mm.
The bike is currently at the shop from which it was purchased for about the 4th time and still no fix.
Last week the mechanic took the bike out after hours and rode it in order to get a better idea of what I was talking about. Afetr about 40 minutes he was sick of the noise and gave up. The next day he put a smaller rotor on the rear then rode it again that night. Still no solution.
Whilst I am happy with the service from the shop I am getting a little jacked off that I have spent $3000 on a bike that is spending more time in the shop than it is under me.
Any suggestions?
