About £60. Not too hard.

well it depends, if you have a fetish for using chain riveting tools, or kneeling behind the bike spraying grease or indeed enjoy dropping the bike off for C&S changes, then no don't bother.

However if you intend to actually use the bike, want to get at least double the mileage from your C&S, then as the man says it's a good idea.....:D

Cheers Mark.

2nd hand off ebay from £30. but deff. get one. Pays for itself in chain life, but more than pays for itself by making oiling your chain a non event :)

The only thing I find though is that it only lubricates one side of the chain, but other than that, it works exceptionally well.

Oil is not needed on the sideplates, you are lubing the rollers.
