Ha! In all seriousness, it seems like every spring I have to do new pads. (the squeal is awfully awful and is cured by new brake pads and sometimes even rotors). Come to find out someone posted a thing that Shimano doesn't recommend keeping brake pads in their systems, unused, for a certain level of time. Something like the brake oil leaks?

Guess what? Winter time. Bike doesn't see action...cuz snow. Closed trails. So I'm supposed to take the pads out in the winter? Ummm....mkay.
