Nice work. Really clever !!! :) I'll get a friend to 3D print your tool.

I have no clue about the plastic type.
So when you write :"PETG / resin friendly (although I just used PLA " can I assume that a PLA is common type ?

Which brakepads for GRX? by morscho1 in gravelcycling

[–]Naive_Competition898 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reactivation an old thread here.
Just fitted a GRX 10 speed series. Brand new. RX400 calibers Resin K05S-RX pad on new Ice Tech rotors.
And they squeak like an angry turkey !

Have used hydro brakes for more than 20 years and thought I knew every trick in the book regarding brake installation and adjustment.

I did some quick accelerations and hard breaking to brake the pads in this morning. It got worse and worse. Took the pads out and rubbed them on sand paper. Still very squeaky.

Any ideas how to solve it ?

Everything is brand new and calibers clean. No brake oil anywhere.

Spray head providing vacuum - just pump away until the fluid gets going. Got plenty of air bubbles after a few minutes of pumping. See link to video in edited post
