    Hi has anyone fitted a reduction pulley themselves?

    Thinking about the Alta 15% reduction pulley and am sure I can fit it myself.

    So........ was wondering, anyone bought the pulley removal tool? fancy lending/renting me it?

    Timing - I should really wait till pay day at the end of the month! :-)

    Got my heart set on an Alta kit from Lohen but thanks for the offer of yours. Sure it'll sell easily?

    Thanks mate - I'll give you a shout when I buy the pulley & belt, did you buy/make up any tensioner tools? read a few bits that make it sound like you've to put a fair bit of force into getting the belt to stretch over all the pulleys etc?
