   like it says..when turning, mainly to the left i get squeeking coming from the front..sounds like it coming from the brakes, but when i apply the brake whilst turning left the squeeking goes away so its obvious that its coming from the brakes..anyone know what it is?have u had the same problem?or do you know how to fix this problem?
   
   Thanks
   
   P.S sometimes squeeks when going straight

   ive got the same problem, brakes are not even half worn yet. someone said it was something to do with copper grease on mine. sorting it when i do a full servise in a week.

   is there any lip on the edge of the disc? obviously going along the right lines if copperslip worked for a week! are the pads free to move in the frame and are both calipers free to move as they should?
