Now I have a bike...The gears can be a bit clunky...Probably need adjusting but I dont know how...Is it easy or should I take it to LBS?

Any help greatly appreciated!

  Hi malky,
  It`s not too difficult if you take it carefully, this site has a good `how to` section here :-

  Look at the shimano.eu web site if the kit is fairly current - you can download the pdf of how ot service almost anything!

  There are a couple of decent videos on youtube which are worth searching for. Makes it a bit easier when you can see exactly how it's done!
