    So after fitting some new SLX brakes and Ice Rotors the rear seems to have developed a squeak towards the end of travel, assuming that’s when it biting hardest to stop.

    Tried different pads which seems to solved it for a little while but its back and driving me nuts!!!

    Anyone got any solutions?

    Any sign of contamination on the pads? Could be a small leak at the piston.

    It did it more or less out of the box just strange from being new, tried 2 sets of pads and its done it with both. They are sintered. I could try some normal pads in there and see what happens?!

    That would be my next move – try some Shimano resin pads. I find them pretty long-lasting, and stop well, a good halfway house between sintered and organic.

    I do try to bed them in properly, though, whether that actually helps or is just myth.

    Resin pads seemed to have fixed it, odd
