It sounds like a semi-truck coming to a stop when I squeeze my back disk brakes on my mountain bike. Is there a way I can make that go away without compromising their braking ability?

The classic beach cruiser with all the trimmings. What trimmings? How about frame-colored front and rear duck tail fenders, frame-colored alloy wheels with 48 spokes and designer grips. The top frame tube is two inches longer than most beach cruisers so you won’t have that crowded knee-to-elbow feeling when peddling.It features an oversized hi-tensile steel frame, 29″ wide oversized chrome plated handlebars, and 26″ x 2.125″ flame thread black cruiser tires. The dual coil spring suspension seat ensures a comfortable ride. It is easy to assemble (it comes dissembled) so you’ll be ready to cruise shortly after it arrives at your door.We cannot deliver this item outside the lower 48 US states or to a PO Box or APO address. The bicycles come with a 90 day manufacturer’s warranty that protects against all manufacturer defects. We can not accept returns once the bike is unboxed.

I have a fairly cheapish mountain bike, recently I have found that when too much pedal force is excerpted, the chain seems to rise up and off of the front largest pedal gear sprockets.
Do I need to remove a link or two from the bike chain because the chain may have become stretched over time?
Or do I need to adjust the derailleur thus to increase chain tension?

So i got a full spension mountain bike and i need to add air to the rear shock. But the stem on the rear shock is too short. When i use my air compressor to add air, the nozzle of the air compressor wont fully connect to the stem on the shock because the body of the shock is in the way. its hard to explain, but long story short, i think i need a stem extension or something like that. do they make those? anyone got a better idea?
thanks

I have a Mongoose mountain bike and the quick release lever came out and the tire came off and I crashed. The bike is OK, I have a slight crack to the skull, but I cannot find a replacement for the quick release lever. Can I order one on-line?

I got a new mountain bike and i decided to spiff it up, seeing that i dont want to drive yet, so i am going to be using it more. Would it make sense to put toe clips on it? Not the ones where you have to have special shoes, just the ones that you slide your foot into. They are usually plastic. Would that make sense?
