Kudos for having the courage to 'do it yosef!' It really is amazing just how much of ones own maint. You can do with some patience and common sense, oh yeah the manual is important to!

Very cool !! I do most all of the stuff to our bikes. When we were heading to VIR last year I had the wife clean and lube both chains on our bikes just to get the "feel"...and to get to know the bikes a little better.

Of course she takes care of most of the inside of the house stuff so when she handed me the vacuum cleaner to get the "feel" I started cleaning the chains again on the bikes.

Hmmm maybe I should try that

"I'll work on the bikes babe and you clean the house." Somehow I think I'll get the same response you gave.
