Only adults stuff, i'm afraid....

How old is it and what type of gearing? Presumably Shimano? Any particular problems you want curing?

Reason I ask is....i've not got any Shimano tools so if it needs a new set of sprockets, you'll have to take it elsewhere.

Generally, all it will need is a good clean and oil of the chain or a new chain and the brakes adjusting/pads replacing. The rest of it pretty much looks after itself these days due to sealed bearings.
