New LHT, front brake squeal
 

Sounds like a kicked dog. Alex Adventurer 36h rims, Tektro Oryx cantilever #992 brakes.
To my eye, no toe-in or rim misalignment problems. Any suggestions?

yea same answers as the other hundred times this came up.

Take a look here if you haven't seen it yet: http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread...lver-Brake-FAQ

Headset hangers produce brake shudder. You can try and fight it by toeing in your brake pads, but all that really does is lessen your braking power to a point that it won't shudder anymore. What you really need to quiet it is a fork mounted cantilever hanger Get "CAH60" if you're using road levers, the barrel adjuster will be damn useful

You'll also need new housing and most likely a new inner cable (maybe bar tape?) to get this done.

This model of fork mounted cable hanger works well for me: http://www.specialized.com/us/en/bc/...jsp?spid=47409

Thanks, all. Sorry to resurrect a beaten horse.
