Does anyone have a rattle/buzz in the left lever when riding over rough roads? Did you do anything to fix it?

Make sure when you pull the brake lever, there is no play. Cable moves. Make sure brake huusing seated in the lever.

My 7900s rattled some. After adjusting the reach (shortening it) the rattle went away. I didn't need a shorter reach but the adjustment took up some of the play in the lever.

Just quick update, the reach adjustment screw did the trick. Thanks! Silence is golden.
