Thanks for all the advice ........... im going for a abba bike stand (why not?)

then all i have to do is learn how to take the hubs off and on (refitting torques and learning how to fit/adjust chains- and new chains!)

That way i can get the best price on the tyres delivered to me and all i have to do
is take them and the hubs into somewhere to get them fitted saving time and hassle!

Thereby saving myself some dosh in the long run
learning how to do stuff myself and the stand and tools paying for themselves after a couple of years of not paying too much in ride in/out charges!

Any more advice would be cool !

You'll need a jack to get the front one off with the Abba... Or a mate and some bricks
