    The bearings on my Pitch this weekend but without specialist tools.

    Well i be right or is the task doomed from the start?

    Horst link (where chain stays and seat stays meet) is tricky if you can’t pull em out

    Angles on the stays make it difficult to put em back In straight

    The rest of them are pretty straightforward – if you don’t need to change the Horst ones don’t bother

    Ah cheers for that.

    The set nearest the bb are the knackered ones so will leave the horst ones in that case.

    When you’re reassembling shock pivot, stick a large Allen key thru to hold it together

    Check the manual to work out what washer goes where and build it up around the Allen key

    Then put bolt back in from the other side

    It’s a bit of a faff (I’d describe it more accurately but already been criticised for swearing this week)
