Title: Front brake clicking sound.
Post by: CountyDown on Saturday, 17 July 2021, 07:20 PM

Hoping for a wee bit of advice.

I took delivery of my bike yesterday and went for a spin. In town when riding slow I could hear clicking sound coming from front brakes.
The click was at each turn of the wheel and when I gently applied the front brake the clicking stopped.
Suggestions please!

Brake pads move a little bit in calipers.

They almost all do that sir & EBC pads seem to be the worst for it.
