Greetings,
Iam writing this query to request help and advice from fellow cycling enthusiasts. I bought this cycle( Avon orbita) from local shop and as I was eager to buy a cycle. After buying I researched a bit and now I am in major doubt. Cycle is dual disk brake, front suspension, 21speed, 26t tyre size and frame of 17 inches. I am 175 cms long and now majorly confused if I bought a small bike. With seat fully extended all the way to min insertion point the effective distance between peddle crank middle and top of seat becomes 21 inches. Is it right height for me riding it, I don't wana put strain on my knees or ride wrong.
Also I was checking through disk brakes and this is my first time with disk brakes on cycle hence a bit confused. I feel the wheels aren't turning that freely and also I hear very light friction noise from front wheel. I noticed that both disk as very close to one side of pad or even sticking by the way it looks. I don't know what should I do about it, I have bought some tools but wanted to take advise before doing anything.
I have attached pics below as link and will be great if you guys can advise.
Thanks
