How easy is it to change / service hope pro 2 hubs bearings? LBS quoting £80, this seems alittle steep to me!

Simple to do. There are 5 (IIRC) in the rear hub tho so it ain't that cheap to do the lot. Quality bearings are a fiver or more apiece - again IIRC

£8 a pop or so for the bearings, plus an hour's labour. £80 might be a little steep, but you can certainly do it yourself for far less

front 2 are a fiver each and fairly simple to do, not sure about the back.
