Thanks for this.
Yes, Mr. LarrySellerz, I do sometimes poke fun at you because sometimes you come in loudly and sometimes seem sort of lost ....
Even though I do use a semi-mocking tone, I am serious about this: You Can learn to do basic bike mechanics.
I am more thumb-fingered than anyone else I have ever met ... but I did what I recommend you do: I learned (by books, there were no videos back then) and Constant failure and reputations, I learned to be able to do almost every part of bike building and maintenance. You can do the same ... or as much as you want to.
