The rear brake started howling every now and again, mainly in town. I
replaced the pads and the howling stopped....for about 300km, now it's
back.
Any idea's?

Do they howl all the time or only when you apply the breaks?
ps. Are they worse when the moon is full?

Very good point....it has been intermittant. It would be just my luck to
have a 'girl' bike with a nasty monthly cycle.
