    I get it if the brakes are cold and wet. decent downhill and the squeal goes.

    i put nothing on after washing (the bike!) but i am quite keen on washing the bike and it gets done after each use.perhaps the pads are staying damp? the rotors are not correded as is no other parts of the bike.
    is it common on avid?

    Juicies are rotten for it, dunno about Elixirs though.
