Cable disc brakes. I kept putting it off but it was riding like shit and didn’t feel safe, brake levers nearly contacting the handlebar. I had it in my head that the adjustment was like a 30 minute job. Grabbed Allen wrenches, a couple third hands, screwdrivers. 5 minutes and two Allen bolts later, all done. Topped off the tires with air, quick test ride, meat’s back on the menu. No real point to this post, but maybe you’ve made a quick adjustment or repair that made you happy?

    This whole thread is encouraging. I have acquired a used bicycle in a game of chance and I have been procrastinating on the rehab because I was anticipating it becoming some months long project.

      It can be a months long project or it can be a days long project. But it’s a worthwhile project and the best way to make it quicker is to start it sooner
