  • Purely in terms of cost, it will cost you more than 100£ in tools and effort. However if you plan to work on bikes longer term it is worth it.

    You will need a crank puller, hex wrenches, bottom bracket tool adjustable wrench (potentially a cheater bar as well), headset cup remover (bear in mind there are different sizes), plus probably some oils, lubricants etc

    It isn’t massively hard but will take you time. If you plan to do this kind of thing more than once or twice, I strongly recommend doing so because it’s super fun







  • You’re not an idiot but it’s certainly possible that you end up regretting it. I’ve toyed with the idea of putting the small helix on my board purely for tuning, digital delay and looping, but I don’t think I’d ever lose the wahs, boosts, dirt and weird stuff in their dedicated boxes

    Is there a way that you get the helix and try it before committing to getting rid of the old stuff?
