Question Grinding (rubbing) noise from the front
Starting hearing it on a ride this evening. At first I thought it was a bearing, but as I went further along I am leaning more towards the sound being the break pads rubbing. Being new to bikes, I am wondering if it is common for the front break rotor to warp or if the caliper needs to be bled after break in. Or is this simply how the break system works and I am just not used to the sounds of a bike. Only 400k....shouldn't be worn out yet!!!!

Silver and Black is definitely fastest, now the question is....can I stop????

Cheers,
