I think an awful lot of us are doing it ourselves. If you fancy learning there's virtually unlimited help from the good folks of the Soho Massive.

I missed my 7.5k service and waited till i got to 10k.
Needed new rear pads too and the whole thing cost just over £175.
Very nice peeps too and its an independant little place in Camden. Suited me fine at the time cos it was down the road from work, so i dropped it in in the morning and he called me in the afternoon to go get it.
I would do my own too but i dont have a garage and the weather cant be trusted either

a few of us use Rob Berrington-smith, who's got a garage in ealing. Very reasonable on labour charges.

http://www.bikesmart.co.uk/

mention the site and he will probably do you a good deal

Rob has looked after all my bikes, and apart from myself and Alan, Nick and Richard use him regularly, as do a number of others on this site...

Many thanks for all your replies... Camden one sounds closest. I would love to do it all myself, but don't have a garage and it's a bit chilly out there BC
