Hello All,
I bought my son a 50cm bike-in-a-box from kmart and I completed maybe 75% of the assembly required. Now I'm stuck, I cant seem to get the brakes working. I've contacted Kmart but they said there will be a week turnaround for completion, but my son has entered the weetbix triathalon which is this Wednesday.

Is there any handy person that knows about bicycles? Or refer an affordable place that can help me... I've checked trademe but can't find kids bike repair services.

Thanks
