RS685 box just arrived. Would a fairly capable mechanic with zero disc experience be able to install ok with the right tools, or is it LBS territory?

I did it for first time, its piss easy. All working fine 300 miles on. I bought and borrowed tools. Get the tektro hose cutter, nifty little tool that pushes pins in hoses too. Shimano bleed kit obviously.

The manual doesn't seem too unfathomable. Any youtube vids show the process? I couldn't find one

There's a better kit to be had from one of the MTB shops on eBay.
