??? about incredibly loud breaks
I bought a cheap bike at WalMart today. It was about $60.
Not being much of an enthusiast, I don't intend to spend much (if any) more for one, but figured a cheap bike would get me some excercise and provide the basics that a person would want from a bicycle. In most respects is seems to do well enough, but the breaks are ***loud!!!!!!!!!!!!!!***!!!!!!. Not only are they the loudest breaks I've ever heard on a bike, but they are the loudest breaks I've ever heard on anything! They are so loud that I won't keep the thing unless they can be made to shut up. They don't just squeal, they scream with a whole bunch of different tones going on...to me they sound like a flock of geese, only a whole lot louder than any geese could be. If I stopped the bike while going past a house, I feel sure the people inside would be able to hear it very easily even if all the doors and windows were closed. Is there a way to make them shut up? |
