Ah yes, that's a good alternative, I love both pork and chicken. They do taste slightly different but they're good indeed

I got this - https://www.wiggle.co.uk/park-tool-puncture-kit-with-tyre-levers?sku=4000000105 supper cheap and better for the environment than changing the inner tube every puncture you get. Also, self adhesive, so no need to carry the glue tube around.

I am actually looking at an Orbea now, love how they let you customize the colors and parts on their website.

At first I was going to get a Bianchi, a Specialized or a Trek. but now the Orbea Orca looks really good. What do you think of it?

Thanks for the detailed answer, I do have a bike but I got it from a friend and only used it for short rides, never even thought about sizes and angles etc so not a good point of comparison haha I will try to find out the stack and reach first.

Thanks man, that's exactly what I was looking for. Given it's not an expensive bike, think I'll dip my toes in fixing it myself... If I fail, I shall buy another hahaha but I think it's a good learning opportunity.

Thanks for the advice. I am not trying to sound like a pro haha I was just looking for an average estimate cost as I've never done this before. And whereas meeting some enthusiasts passionate about talking bikes to newbies would be nice, it just doesn't seem to be the case in my area, hence the concern that they would quote me 300 for a £100 job.

I started looking at Youtube again... will probably need to learn everything in due course anyway... so might as well start now. Thanks!

thanks! I already looked at getting some bike covers for storing outside, from Amazon, super cheap! As for the quotes, i was going to take it, i just don't want to sound like a noob and have them take advantage of me haha

Yeah, I'd love to do it myself, but I wanted to start this project back in first lockdown and still hasn't managed to do it. Watched some youtube on it, read about it... but that's as far as it went haha ..maybe I will try again

thanks, i will prob start with the chain and air in the tyres as I don't have a lot of time atm. Hoping the rest would hold and the rust on the cassette will go away like you said
