Author Message   Jasonxb12s Posted on Thursday, October 13, 2005 - 04:37 pm:        I realized this today while riding. Sounds like secadas singing in the summer months once the brakes are warm and applied. I did change my front pads approx 300 miles ago. Anyone have experience with this?   Cataract2 Posted on Thursday, October 13, 2005 - 07:00 pm:        eh? I know that they will make a buzzing noise due to the cross drilled wholes.   Kdan Posted on Friday, October 14, 2005 - 03:10 am:        I just changed my pads and got the exact same sound...Sounds just like cicadas in the summer. I put the Lendal Golds on and they buzz something fierce. But I took it all apart again and see no signs that it's a problem, so put 'em back in and got used to the buzz. Since I can't put trading cards in the spokes, this'll do! My guess is, it's because the pads don't have the slots cut in them like the stockers and the holes in the rotor are making the noise.   Jerseyguy Posted on Friday, October 14, 2005 - 08:22 am:        My 9S and 12Ss both make the same sound. I really don't think it's anything to be concerned about.   Firewhirl Posted on Friday, October 14, 2005 - 12:49 pm:        I just changed my pads and got the exact same sound...Sounds just like cicadas in the summer.

Mine did the same. The noise will eventually go away.   Jasonxb12s Posted on Friday, October 14, 2005 - 07:44 pm:        Kdan, I bought the exact same pads...   Norcalbuell Posted on Friday, October 14, 2005 - 08:21 pm:        It goes away? When? I got 4k on front pads Lendal Golds and i still get the buzzzz.......   Diablobrian Posted on Friday, October 14, 2005 - 11:17 pm:        I know, I know! when they wear down and you take them out?   Buellin_ri Posted on Friday, October 14, 2005 - 11:26 pm:        What the heck are cicadas? Sounds like a mexican dish.   Kdan Posted on Monday, October 17, 2005 - 08:17 am:        What the heck are cicadas? Those monster looking bugs that buzz up in the trees all summer.   Buellin_ri Posted on Monday, October 17, 2005 - 05:53 pm:        Don't have em up here.   Kdan Posted on Monday, October 17, 2005 - 08:32 pm:        You can eat 'em. When they first molt, they taste a bit like asparagus. Most people don't like to eat bugs though.   Indy_bueller Posted on Tuesday, October 18, 2005 - 07:24 pm:        We have them in spades here in Indy. Come eat all you want! I ain't touchin the nasty lil things.
