    My brake cable either got stretched out or something, all I know is that it's hanging by my knees when I ride and makes it difficult to ride... How might I rehang it properly...

    odd vibration

    It's me again the bike noob with a possible dumb question. I ride a D-back response I bought at dicks. I hear a metal on metal crunching through all my gears now, I might have inadvertently cross chained. I'm not sure what's going on here, it only does it when I ride, not when I put it...

    It turns out Dick's does indeed suck at bike repair. I took my bike in for it's 1 year tune up, it was free with the warranty...

    unusual sound..

    After hours reading about cross chaining. I don't believe I have cross chained, as I have never removed it.. If I bought it that way, I wouldn't know.. How do I know what a "strait" chain should look like on a 21 speed bike.

    Ty Smelly, very helpful... I bought the bike from Dick's, is there something I should know about them? I'll take a look at the steering column see if anything's amiss.
