Mech bolt replacement
Yeah,piece of cake,remove the clip that holds everything together,replace the bolt,fit the spring and the b-tension adjustment plate.Leave the clip off,screw the mech into the dropout a few turns,this will hold all in place.You then slide the clip into place and push it fully in with a thin flat screwdrier or similar and then tighten the bolt fully onto the dropout.Takes me about 30 seconds this way,no fuss and no swearing as the spring is held tight and does not keep moving.
