Hi Lou! I dunno where you are located...I\´m in London Ont. canada.If you\´re in the area I\´d do it for ya. You should just try to rebuild it though. You\´ll save yourself A LOT of $$$. Spend the $30-35 and get a shop manual from Canadian tire,a bike shop/dealer ect.. Its the BEST investment you\´ll make. Most people are just afraid to try a rebuild. If you can understand:right tight,left loose, then you can do it! I promise! k? Good luck man! Any problems just e-mail me or post something on here. ;D
