V-Brakes Troubles

dancook

Hi,

A new women's halfords bike, and we had to fit the wheel as it came boxed.

I didn't know the best way to get the wheel on past the brakes, so I used the allen key to remove the brake cable from the v-brake. When I did that it all sprung apart, and now I'm having trouble getting it back together again!

After a while I've managed to get the brakes to work ok, but they are not straight and I can't work out what I need to do.

This is the bike.

Thanks, Dan
