The squealing noise from your bike's disc brake when pressure is applied is likely caused by vibrations between the brake pads and the rotor. This can happen due to uneven wear on the brake pads, contamination on the rotor or pads, or improper alignment of the brake caliper. Regular maintenance and adjustments can help reduce or eliminate the squealing noise.
