Just got a 2x9 setup fitted but when pedalling its tending to change gear on its own. Is this something I can easily adjust myself or do I need an lbs?

ok you cable tension is probably off
you can adjust the cable tension at the shifter, slacken it off a bit at a time until it indexes without jumping
