The only calliper fault i can think of that would make that sort of noise is one of the mounting bolts coming out. The calliper would then rattle on top of the mount when braking. So why not take a look at it and see if it is just a bolt missing. I suppose an alternative could be that the bolt is still there but the thread is stripped due to overtightening....the thread is in the calliper mount/post so not a calliper fault at all in that case...just needs a new mount/post. DIY seems the best solution to me....do you really want to take it back to a dealer that sold the bike to you with that sort of fault and risk them fixing it?!!
Hi...I can show you a picture of what broke. It isn’t fixable. It’s clear that the housing broke. That’s why I’m not sure if it was installed wrong (ie over tightened or something) or a manufacturing defect (idk-air in the composite?)
I’m trying to attach the picture so you can see where it’s simply snapped. It’s on the bottom and it wasn’t until really examining very closely where they told me to over the phone that I could find it.
