I'm no expert but I do like tinkering.<br /><br />I like to take my time and learn something new. If I find it's something I can;t do then I'll take it to a bike shop. There are some special tools that are too expensive to buy but most are affordable if you do enough miles.Toby Fieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03680271828637653290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-390698253856681971.post-39938506197213057252012-06-01T21:21:46.301+01:002012-06-01T21:21:46.301+01:00Well Done Toby.... you've gone in at the deep ...Well Done Toby.... you've gone in at the deep end with a full bike strip - but great result! The Allez really looks like new as well as riding like new again..... I'm sure you'll actually 'feel ' the bike more now you've worked on every nut and bolt!

I can change a puncture and tyre but that's about my limit.<br />But the amount I save in fuel by cycling more than pays for the LBS to fix and maintain my bike, so I'm happy with that, but I do envy people who seem to be able to adjust gears and replace the fluid in their hydraulic disc brakes etc.Mark Shawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05579283966141582817noreply@blogger.com
