With that in mind, I had considered readjusting my rear brakes. Short of getting into an accident, at what point would you consider the adjustment to be too loose? The last time, I did rear brakes, I found a video on Youtube that demonstrates how to judge the tension of your adjustments by spinning the rear wheels.

It can be found on time index minute 13:16 on the video.
