I was told at the LBS that there is a break-in period for these brakes (and from what I can assume and heard from here, break-in periods are required for all new disc brakes) and that I am just going through it now.

ESW: I have been hearing more and more what you just said about 'bedding' the brake pads and the rotors in. When you say to clean them, would I do this with rubbing alcohol and a clean rag?

ShimmerFade: I have been to the LBS on 3 different occasions and I have gotten 3 different answers on this issue. 1) rub dirt on it. 2) rotor is dirty (tech at the LBS cleaned the rotors with soapy water and wiped it off). 3) Told me that there was a break-in period (this was today).

Honesly, I don't mean to ask 'dumb' questions, but as I said earlier, I have little experience with these type of brakes.

I appreciate all of everybody's input thus far and I will most certainly keep updating this!

Thanks again,

JD
