My winter bike has been fucked - the hub has gone on the rear wheel - got that booked in and fixed, but it took weeks. Got it back, put it in the bike and went out on it, but realised there’s an issue with the chain and cassette (both worn). Went to book that in and couldn’t find anywhere that would do it for at least a month.
I tackled the bastard at lunchtime and I’ve only gone and fucking done it myself. I even had to remove a chain link with a specific tool I didn’t even know I had to be able to attach the speed link. I feel like some kind of god and I’ve saved myself £50 in the process.
I’m so diabolically non-mechanical. It’s a miracle.
