> having a competent mechanic completely overhaul and inspect the most critical safety system on a bike for €150 seems like a pretty good deal Absolutely, and I was happy to pay for the brakes to be sorted! €150 is a fairly substantial repair cost relative to the new cost; remember that this is a child's bike suitable for an 8-10 year-old. Having all the brakes replaced on a car might well cost thousands, but cars cost tens of thousands new. |

In that case, if you bought a top of the line racing bicycle for the child, it would be a much lower proportional cost for the brakes! (joking of course)
