Hello all,

After riding my YBR in the rain, the rear brake (drum) has started to squeak.

Its now dry and still squeaks.

What do I do?

Much love

Constant squeak or just when you brake?

Constant - check for something rubbing - bike on centre stand, spin wheel by hand while getting your ear in close. Find the squeak and adjust/lubricate it.

On braking - clean the dust out of the drum, try not to breath any in, it's not asbestos-based these days but it's still not nice. Then have a look at the shoes and see if they're glazed over (too shiny) - a quick onceover with some emery paper will take the shine off. Also check the pivot points and give them a thin smear of copaslip while you're in there.
