New cassette and chain question?
I just got my cassette and chain replaced on my bike, and it's running fine and all, shifting well, but when it's running it's ... kind of loud. Like, "clickiclickiclickih" while I'm pedaling, and I'm wondering is this just because the components are so new? Will they settle down with some more riding?

Or is adjustment I can do on my own? (bearing in mind my limited experience).

Actually if you can read, and turn a cylindrical device in your fingers you'll be ok. you just have turn a barrel device on deraileur to adjust it.
