There is almost always a DIY alternative. But, as mentioned above...you often need specialized wrenches/tools. Although you could possibly do this fix with standard open-end wrenches. Otherwise, look to see if there is a bike co-op in your area. They should have the tools, and someone with the expertise to assist you.
