Your rotor can be contaminated with grease and need to be cleaned with alcohol and a piece of steel wool If they are new maybe those pads are metalics, the type of pads with the highest braking power and the noisiest braking

Lemme put you on a longer lasting method, pop off one of the plastic covers on the shifter. Usually just need a lil Philips screwdriver to get it off. Then spray some type of cleaner in there. I use the muc off pink bike cleaner. Shift it back and forth to work it in a let sit for few minutes. Flush it all out with rubbing alcohol then let that dry or use air compressor to blow the alcohol dry and use a lubricant like tri flo and lubes up the little Paul’s and spring and whatever makes metal to metal contact and put the plastic cover back on. Will feel like new.

haha. It never work even so smooth, although even here it was far from it. First you look for clean towel, liquid and syringe, then the brake cleaner is somewhere, then as here the hex keys constantly dropping themselves and jump out of sight and you look for it for 10 minutes because another set is in the house. Then you knock with you elbow the bottle with a mineral oil, which of course stayed open, and, swearing, you clean everything for another 10-15 minutes - and again - where the hell is a brake cleaner and new clean towels? And of course, the spilled oil was on the brake pads, because you did not place them too far away.. Or you touch them with oily hands. Or it will not be enough oil in the bottle for bleeding because it is all around, but not in the bottle. And, adding those last drops you found into the lever, last push of the syring will splash oil again. And some drops will definitely sit on the front wheel brake disk, which you even did not touch!!!! So - where the hell is this f..... brake cleaner again?! 1-2 hours of pure joy! Ask me how I know :) And the cherry - pads will squick. Does not matter whether they got oil or not - you need to realign a caliper or even break pads in again. Read, make conclusions. Be prepared! P.S. WHAT HAPPEND WITH A CHAIN?!?!??!?!
