Hi all. I am fairly new to cycling and have just got my Giant TCR Alliance Zero bik. The brake block on the front left looks very close (1.5mm) away from the fork when the brake is not applied. It's not quite so close on the other side. Is this normal as I'm worried that given time it may move and eventually start catching the fork when open. Thanks.

    you must have looked over the bike very carefully to notice that :wink:
    I wouldn't worry, the brake blocks will move away from the fork under normal braking and there is no way it can get any closer so enjoy :D
