Hi i have a giant brass (really shit i know) and the cable brakes on it have been mucking up
My problem is that when i adjust the brake tension by moving the cable slightly more through the thigy (sorry really hard to explain) the brake will then have enough tension that i can brake just using one finger (instead of having to use whole hand)
The problem then being that when my brake tension feels perfect, the pads then start rubbing against the disc, making it hard to get one rotation out of a slight turn of the wheel
So it goes in a huge circle that i take off the tension so that the wheel spins freely, but then no brake lever tension, so going in such a big circle is really pissing me off
So i was just wondering if you had any suggestions to help me or whether its back to the bike shop
Cheers, Will
