Hi this is my first post to this forum and just got my first decent mountain bike just a few tiny problems the disk brake keeps catching on the disk sometimes and it is very annoying as the sound from it is is squeeky. Other than that i love it it is a raleigh AT40
Anyway here is a pic of my new bike hope you like it would welcome any advice or tips and if there are any decent rides in the peterborough area.

Looks pretty stealthy all in black!
Brakes can take a little while to bed in - and they often squeak, especially when wet!0 -
welcome aboard. Bike looks quite nice.
What would you like advice or tips on? I've got plenty of life advice I could share!

LOL you guys are funny thanks for the tips.
Ok i will try and give the squeeky brakes some time then i have only had it one week and so far done 24 miles i am also using it to bike to work but i try and avoid the roads if i can. Saving me a bit in petrol too.
Just hope the weather gets better now i used to bike to work in around 30 minutes but when i biked for the first time yesterday it took me 45 minutes very slow a bit better today 35 minutes. It's a 7 mile ride so not to far.
I am very unfit at the moment must be when i hit 30 last month
Cheers0 -
I was 30 last month too... 25 was bad, but 30 and things start to creak lol0

I'm 30 on Monday and i'm knackered already lol0

30, pah, add another 5 years, then you really do get creaky
