  1. if all else fails use a bit of copper compound in between the piston and the back of the disk pad just a thin layer
  2. before going out and spending a fortune on upgrading take your bike in and get the brakes bled as a slight bit of air in the line could cause your brakes to not function correctly start with the basic stuff first and if they are squealing under braking then you would have to replace the pads
  3. Chris Willemse Senior, former Springbok and National Cycling Champion, Chris Senior is, still today, the only cyclist in South Africa that has won all three divisions of the SA Road Race (Elite, Junior and Scholar). He was also the person who personally introduced many international cycling champions to South Africa for the first time, which include: Eddy Merckx(Belgian) – Five time winner of the Tour de France and Giro d’Italia, four time winner of the World Championship and holder of the World Hour Record (Longest distance cycled in one hour). A marvel of cycling who is known as the greatest cyclist of all time! Patrick Sercu(Belgian) – Olympic Gold Medallist (Track Cycling – 1964, Tokyo), recorder holder for the most six-day track event wins and two time World Champion where he dominated his rivals with his strong sprinting ability. Francesco Moser(Italian) – Former World Champion and Giro d’Italia winner, and one of the dominant cyclists in the mid-1970’s to the early-1980’s. Mario Cipollini(Italian) – Former World Cycling Champion, winner of 191 international cycling events in total and known as one of the best sprinters of his generation. Jan Ullrich(German) – Former World Champion, very first German to win the Tour de France and Gold & Silver Medallist during the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney. Chris Senior is also the person who arranged the very first Cycling Street Mile in the world, the International Tri-Nation Track Event and the three-day International Track Event at the Bellville Velodrome.
