The right tools are an investment. Bikes are not complicated machines to work on, unless you buy the complicated parts the market tells us we need (hydraulic brakes, etc.)
This is why I joined the forums, I'm trying to gain at least a tidy bit of knowledge to up my skills so in the future I wont need to run to the shop, any luck you can share me on which tools I need to purchase as well? Thanks in advance everyone for all the help again!
