Homework
Not too long ago, I did a repair and maintenance on my bicycle.
The front brake caliper was broken, it had to be replaced.
First, I dismantled the front of the bike, taking the wheel and the brake off.
Next, I replaced the broken and the worn parts of the brake, then reassambled them and the wheel.
After a service, it is always good to adjust the brake, to ensure its optimal functioning.
Since I had the tools and the occasion, I attempted to solve a grinding noise inside the back wheel hub.
It turned out to be caused by a fractured bearing, so I ended up just removing the shards and applying WD-40 inside the
wheel hub.
After fastening the rear wheel back into its place, I tightened some loose bolts and re-greased the chain and the gears.
