Why can't you do it yourself now? Do you mean with modern bikes is not as easy?

No, I'm getting on and my health ain't what it used to be Wink

I could probably do it, but would suffer for it - probably for a few weeks.

Ah yes I know what that's like and I'm not even 40. I now add a box of Ibuprofen to anything I order involving DIY

Ibuprofen? Passed that point 20 years ago, my friend - now it's 160mg of morphine a day - plus a swig of the liquid kind if I spend the day working on the bike (like today - only this time 2 hour's kip in the bath did the job!) Very Happy
