I've got a Trek 6500 with Hydraulic Disk breaks, they are beginning to make
a metallic noise not when breaking, I cant se anything wrong, I've cleaned
the breaks with lot of running water, can anyone give me a tip, it comes and
go. I use the bike daily, mostly road. What is the easiest way to keep them
clean?

sounds like the pads rubbing,. something contaminating the pad. makes a
'scraping' sort of sound ?

Ive never had to clean discs in my many years running them in mud.
Check their alingment once youve cleaned any excess away, either you
have a freak-stone stuck in them or the rotor has been knocked and is
catching the pads.
