hay fuzzy, Sounds like you have oil on your pads. My saint breaks with metalic pads stops on a dime, they are very graby, I have to warn people test riding my bike about the graby breaks or they get launched. Try cleaning your breaks with break cleaner, but once the pads are contaminated they will ozz oil out during use.

Great article! I mistakenly put organic pads on the back of my bike, and thought there was somthing wrong with my brakes. I couldn't lock up the rear wheel with one finger and they felt like they had air in the lines compared to when I have metalic pads on. I was about to take it in for a bleed when I decided to see if the pads had oil or grease on them befor I took it to the shop, when I discovered the pads were organic, threw them in the garbage and put metalic ones on, now everything is great. I find the metalic pads not as loud as organic. Just my 2 cents worth.

It's a 9 speed, and it just has the cable coming out of it, so you can put whichever derailer you like, as long as it is 9 speed.
