Hi any advice on how to stop my v brakes from making a loud squeling noise. Tried cleaning my rims and checked the pads for contamination etc. but they still make an embarrasing noise.

    Are they toed-in? The front of the block hitting the rim before the rear?
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.
