Re: [RBW] Paul Racer Brake Noise/Vibration

Agree with Patrick that whatever change you make, give it a 100 miles. Only disagree with the idea to toe in more. Centerpull brakes work best with no toe in, in my experience. I have 2 bikes with Paul Racers, with one center mount and one post mount. No toe in for either and no squeal or s

Re: [RBW] Paul Racer Brake Noise/Vibration

Are the rims and pads clean? Are the rims new? I've found that a hundred miles or so of not-too-clean riding surfaces can do a lot to "match" pads to rims. I had horrible squeal and front judder with Tektro CR 720s on my then-new 2020 Matthews (26" wheels on largish frame, so very long steerer).

Re: [RBW] Paul Racer Brake Noise/Vibration

I am a big fan of the Racer brakes. Would hope that you would not need to dump. Set mine up many years ago, but seem to remember them not being toed in. I would recommend going back to no toe in and first see if the squealing ceases once bedded in, before considering other changes. As far as

Re: [RBW] Paul Racer Brake Noise/Vibration

This is a common complaint with headset-mounted cable hangers. Changing to a fork-mounted hanger usually alleviates the problem. Shovel Research just released a nice one: https://shovelresearch.com/fork-mounted-brake-cable-hangerJay LonnerBellingham, WASent from my Atari 400On Sep 8, 2023, at 5:54

[RBW] Paul Racer Brake Noise/Vibration

Good morning, I just got a new set of Racer (regular) brakes for my sidepull Hillborne. Everything's set up, the brakes are grabbing/stopping, but I'm getting the most horrific noises from the pads on the front brakes. I'm using the Kool Stop Thinlines that Paul sends with the brakes. I set them
