My front rotor seems to be making a grinding noise, I have a relatively new bike and I’m not sure what’s causing it

Bicycles Asked by John F on October 30, 2021

I’m new to cycling and I have a road bike with hydraulic disc brakes. I noticed that they are making a quiet, but audible grinding noise. I’ve heard this noise before and since I have a new bike, could this noise be caused by the brake pads needing to be bedded in? When I heard it the first time, it was much louder and then it started to dial down a bit. Anyone know what could be causing this? Thanks

It could be that the brake caliper is not aligned properly. It is a simple procedure described in this video by park tool
