I agree. Do it yourself. That smug feeling you'll get is really worth it - oh, and you'll know the bike. But I really can't stress that smug feeling enough.

Look at it this way, you could work at your soul-destroying job for someone else, or you can expand your mind and your life and work on your bike. Which would you prefer? (I'm assuming your job is soul-destroying, it might not be. In which case, I'm thrilled for you.)

The bike is beautiful. It wants your loving attention.
