Seen the bike radar vids on gear indexing etc and think they are really easy to follow and helpful.
Was sick of reading how to index gears as I couldn't make sense of it ( visual learner) found the video on YouTube and it took literally two minutes and was perfect crisp changes no jumping yay.
Also watched some other videos on hub servicing, park tools vids etc and it shocked me at how simple it is, just a case of having the tools and basic skills. Will help me with Looking after the bike and keeping it in Tip top condition. Plus and little niggles I'd be confident enough to fix myself.

Yeah, took me ages to figure out how to index gears, it's one of those things you have to sit down and actually think about to figure out how it works in your head. Once you've got it, it's really simple!0
