Delighted!!

After a rocky introduction to mountain biking (bike got nicked after a few weeks), by new replacement bike (GT aggressor) has arrived! I was out off round the local track within half an hour of getting the bike from the shop.

Seems a great value bike for the money (£280 in halfords sale), I'm just happy to be out and about again!

One question, is it normal for break pads to rub against the brake disc with new bikes? The front wheel seems to be rubbing, ddn't want to adjust in case this will settle down the bedding in process?

PS Don't let the thieves stop you!!

    If it is slowing you down, then adjust, if it is just rubbing, I'd leave it, see if it beds in and stops.

    Have fun on your new bike :D
