Hi,
The bike I have (which arrived this morning) is a Jeep Comanche from the UK Argos catalogue: http://www.argos.co.uk/webapp/wcs/s...productId=83862 I've never seen a disc brake before but when I looked at it (peering down from over the top of the handlebars) I could see the left hand pad but nothing of the right hand pad so that applying the brake looked as if it would catch the housing on the righthand side. I stuck an allen key behind the spokes to adjust the most obvious nut determining how far the righthand pad extrudes but it came out at an angle - so that when I applied the brakes it 'bent' the disc to the right (only slightly of course) and I dunno if this is normal! Don't know much at all really, which is why I would appreciate any advice - are there any web tutorials which might help?
