Three comments:
1) Your brother's generosity aside, does the bike frame actually fit you? If not, then you can do a lot of tinkering and never really get comfortable. I'd suggest a trip to the LBS to get measured for this style bike and comparing it to the frame size of the bike you were given.
2) No need to be for an apologetic tone we're all in this together
3) welcome to the forum!
