  • ^ nice. 10 speed - I can't stretch to that.

    Do you think I need a new front mech for a compact? Who's best to get it all fitted? I can't see harry halls being too happy if I take my own chainset in for them to fit. I don't think I have the tools or proper know-how to change shimano BBs and he like.

    As Nes says, BB would do it, and not many bike shops can complain if you turn up with your own bits. Certainly Withington Cycles never do.

    Shimano only have double and triple front mechs in their range, nothing compact specific, so current front mech should work fine. In theory you should get a new chain and cassette, but depending on wear levels of current setup you could be OK.

    No idea about Bottom Brackets, that's deffo a mechanic's job.
