Then I tried something that's counter-intuitive...reverse toe-in. This is where you adjust the brake pads so the rear of the brake pad hits the rim first. I adjusted the front brake pads in this manner, took it for a test ride, and I couldn't make it squeal!! This is huge, as there's nothing more frustrating than listening to your brakes screech every time you come to a stop. I like my ride to be stealthy quiet.
Karl - you should try this adjustment on your Surly, if you're getting the same problem I had.

Can you believe your kids are getting so old?! I, personally, can't believe Ty is already 14! I love the poses in both pictures.
ReplyDeleteHey Eric, thanks for the toe-out brake advice. I'll give it a try.
ReplyDeleteNo, Tanya, I can't believe that you guys are all getting so old! It doesn't seem possible that you're turning 25 this year (on 4/2)! Where does the time go? I'm serious, someone please tell me!
ReplyDeleteWould that be a "heel in" instead of reverse toe-in? As for the kids pictures, I'm getting old!
ReplyDeleteHey Neal! Yes, your "heel in" description is perfect! Much more intuitive.
