i've changed the brake discs and pads for some brembo items. But now i've got a clanking (don't know what word best describes it) but everytime the wheels go around, there is atleast once or twice when this noise appears.
my dad says it could be until the pads are bedded in........ is this true?

i think it could be something to do with the wheel bearings, the noise
