    Wishing you a speedy recovery, Chris!
    How about videos on (1) how to index your gears & (2) how to size a new chain? Thx

  • @kevinlyon9501
    @kevinlyon9501 2 місяці тому +1

    Tick got those, though did make my own chain whip out of an old chain. If possible wheel truing, though I appreciate probably less of an issue these days with carbon wheels.

    Top tips & sensible, pragmatic advice. Sometimes, you do get what you pay for. Nice video, Chris & Jimmy 👏. I didn't know you had an op Chris......wishing you a speedy recovery to full health 👍. Elvis has left the bike shop with a new Argon Krypton Pro ! 😉😅

      Thanks mate. Recovering well. Didn’t massively want to shout about it but it’s why I’ve not been riding much lately

      @ChrisHallRides Hi Chris 👋 you absolutely have the right to privacy and keep things away from UA-cam and the like. A full recovery is paramount. Take care, and we'll see lots of cycling when you're ready 👍. Your current bike videos are always a good watch. Have a grand week ahead, 🍻 Graham.

    Mine is a general question: what sort of jobs are best left to pro mechanics? Certainly amateur and advanced amateur mechanics can tackle most maintenance, repair or upgrades...what are some examples of jobs we backyard types should leave to experienced pros?

    • @ChrisHallRides
      @ChrisHallRides  2 місяці тому +1

      Good question! Off the top of my head one I always think is bleeding breaks. One I don’t like and don’t think I’ll ever really do

    How much ????
    Run 2 x.
    9 speed Shimano cassette 15 Quid.
    9 speed Shimano chain 15 Quid.
    Wanna go modern?
    Ok, tad more coin and run 10 speed....
    11 and 12 speed is just marketing bollox for elite athletes.
    The average cycllist?
    8-9-10 speed with 2 x or 3 x....
