Once the OP knows what it is he will not >worry that much about it :-) The special Gleitmo grease that's recommended for use with the brake calipers on C900's is probably meant to prevent much of the clonking - but I have never found it for sale here in Australia. If there is meant to be a special grease just for use on sliding yokes, I'd be interested to know what brand(s) are available here and what the products themselves are called.
