Money is tight, I am looking for work, and I have my legacy MB from the 90's that needs new cables for brakes and I don't know how to do it. When I asked $200 for a bike worth $50 nah.

I just wonder if there are any vocational schools at local colleges that teach bike mechanics OCC, Irvine Valley College, Saddleback, that would do it for $100. $100 is doable but $200 I can just buy a new bike from Costco.com for $400 with all new features and no wear.

Tried that no bike stand or extensive bike tools.

Many years back in college they had a bike clinic where you could show up and learn it was cool.

Did find a good video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3AmtaGR3kw
