Hows everyone doing this evening? Noticed that my chain was a little slack the other day so decided to tighten slightly (very fractional amount) but after doing the rear brake cable locking nut back up ive noticed that the when applying the rear brake there is a sqeaking noise which seems to be coming from near the rear wheel. Is it that the rear wheel is not aligned perfectly or could it be that ive over done or under done the tightening on the rear brake cable nut? Sorry if this sounds like a newb question but, well, i am very much a newb!

Thanks in advance

Hi Chris,

Dont know if you got the noise sorted yet but i would say that as you tightened your chain you tightened your brake cable and the noise is brake rub which will go once the pads have worn a little bit.
