I just picked it up a couple days ago, so not yet, but I will. As long as it is free I'll have them do anything that will take more than the hour drive and back. I did the couple little things it needed when I got home because I wanted to learn anyway (for the derailleur, the saddle is simple and took no new learning, in fact, I even set the right height which I thought I might not have once I started watching YouTube), and it would be quicker than the drive.
