Converting Classic Road Bikes

weren't they a little horrified when you took a bike in for "for new pedals/clips/straps" in the first place? it's hardly the most arduous or complex of tasks.

I went in with my bike to buy them, not to have them fitted! It was a struggle, but I managed in the end. ;-) Having said that I did once snap a drop forged spanner (and nearly my fingers) trying to unscrew an SPD pedal off the wrong way...........
