Re: Really annoying sqealing from back brakes

The brakes are brand new and I already installed new springs every way they can go in and still sqeaking. All he springs I try are just too close to the cooling turbines and they rub. The squeaking isn't from the brakes it's an even squeak and squeaks about 6 times per wheel turn. I looked and the hub and on every turbine deal there's an imdention about an 8th oinch deap and the springs are shiny clean wear they rub. Considering this bike doesn't have anough power to go very fast I decided to just take a dremel after it with a grinding bit. So far no probs and it's perfectly quiet so problem fixed.
