    Help a n00b replace his chain and sprockets for beer...

    ... Or could someone even just kindly lend me a chain-breaker/rivet tool and I'll figure out how to do it myself? Can't be that hard, right?

    Chain and sprockets are right here ready to go on, I can travel to you, hopefully sometime tomorrow... can pay in your choice of brew.

    Help would be muchly appreciated
    Tell them it's either a bike or a heroin addiction.

    Or maybe take heroin to build up the courage to buy the bike.

    Or just take heroin and not buy the bike.

    Heroin. It's the key.

    Cheers Scarecrow

    Dejavu: Working all saturday unfortunately, sunday's my only day off. Thanks though.

    Wedge: Yeah, watched a few vids, read the manual, reckon it'll be pretty easy really. Thinking of just buying a clamp and a small ball bearing, and carefully riveting it that way
