My brakes are making noise and I know they can't be bad. What is the best way to clean them up? Appreciate your help!

In many cases what I have been told is that brakes make a noise from vibration. A fix to this is special brake grease that they apply to the back and side of the brake pads that eliminate that noise you are refering to.

Appreciate your help, a buddy of mine does breaks and we put some ceramic pads on yesterday along with that brake grease that went on back of the pads. No squeek now! :D

I think after the new year I might get a aftermarket set of brakes, I have been reading alot on a few of these company's brake set ups. Something different that will jump out a little more. May also go with a FI set up?
