It's intermittent for me, but yes. I also experience this. Mine squeal/vibrate, but mostly only when braking below 20 mph. Pretty sure others have mentioned it... seems like consensus is improperly bedded brakes if I'm deciphering the posts correctly.

That said, I haven't been able to find a fix after it starts happening. If you find one, please post... I'd love this to go away. I'm on CCBs... you running those? Or steel?

The vibration is likely due to deposits on the rotor surface.

The squeal means that you need to re-lubricate the specified contact surfaces (with caliper) of the brake pads.

CCBs here. No noise at all. Forwards or backwards. One night I got the dreaded rock-trapped-in-brake noise at slow speed for about 1/4 mile.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but is this essentially "re-bed the brakes"? Or is there something else to this?
