Daborn Meister Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Basically i was just wondering if there were any online guides of how to build up a bike and attach every part etc. etc. So anyone seen or got one? Many thanks, Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigjames Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 you dont really need a guide as such, its all pretty straight forward, a lot of the more complicated bits will be somewhere in the wik, so search for them in there. if you cant find them in there then list the bits you can find and what your finding hard and im sure one of us can help you out. things like heaset installation if your not confident its worth paying afiver fora shop to do it for you.

What other parts would be the best to take to the shop? Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Norman Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 What other parts would be the best to take to the shop? Joe use the wikki and you should be fine. But i would get my local bike shop to put my head set in because they use a head set press. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walker Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 on a trials bike there are very few jobs that you can't do yourself. Just as lomg as you have a vice you can do most things. Its worthwhile getting a crank puller, chain tool and spoke key and bb tool. Then with the correct allen keys your pretty much sorted! And a pedal spanner.

The Duck Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 If your clueless, get a shop to install; The headset, the bottom bracket and the chain. Rest is simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hI-OOPS-CAPS Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 like from how basic? prebuilt wheels or what .. only specialist thing is headset, forks maybe needed to be cut down aswell. bottom bracket requires tool also, wiki should have everything on, if not try sheldon brown, http://www.sheldonbrown.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c.j Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 use the wikki and you should be fine. But i would get my local bike shop to put my head set in because they use a head set press. is this press also called a vice and two pieces of wood?
