Help with chain & sprockets replacement, Surrey

[canni]

Hey all, all my previous bikes where a shaft driven, so I have literally no idea about chains

Anyone fancy joining & helping me with replacing chain & sprockets, I really would like to learn how I can do this myself,
but I'm a bit scared about messing things up, based only on youtube vids...


Surely I can provide some hospitality ann/or payment for the brave soul

Whos Ann?
Where can we see pictures of her?

Obviously I meant *and/or Sorry there's no Ann :P

Cant help myself but the hardest part of the job is getting the old chain off and re-joining the new chain.

Personally, without the right tools, I would give this job to a local dealer. For a recommendation try T Northeasts in Horley.

Yeah, I suppose this'd be over my abilities anyway Booked the job in a local garage

It's not actually that difficult, but it's a bit daunting the first time. The biggest PITA I found was actually getting the rear wheel back in place so I could put the axle through (took me bloody ages and repeated attempts before I got it sorted!)

If you talk nicely to the garage they may let you record them doing the job and talk you through what's happening.
