My breaks are getting where I have to pull harder and harder in the brake to get the bike to stop, lots of play in the handle. Is there a way I can adjust the brakes?

 

You need new pads then. Get aftermarket ones, about 70% cheaper. Good luck [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

How hard are they to change?

 

The front brakes are pretty easy, remove the tire and wheel and the there in only two bolts holding the caliper on just like a car or truck but smaller. it should not take you more than 30 to 45 min to replace both front sets.
