Following up from my previous thread about 'a bad bike service' where the mechanic failed to tighten up the headset so my handlebars were completely loose, I've now noticed that they haven't fitted the disc brakes properly. Or at least I don't think they have.

The pin keeps coming loose and rubs against the spokes as the wheel turns, resulting in a clicking sound. Also when I brake it rattles. I've pushed the pin back in a couple of times which fixes the problem but only until it comes loose again. I'm not really sure how it should be fitted in the first place. Should I again take my bike back to the shop?

Back to the shop if you don't know what to do. And give them some stick for a poor service.
