It's a pretty straight forward install. If you've ever had the axle out before, it'll be even easier for you. I had mine up and going in about 1/2 hour.

Since I've had my bike torn down to the frame numerous times, I have more practice than most. But a chain swap should only take 15 minutes or less. Assuming you have the right tools.

Pretty simple, do you have the axle carrier nut wrenches? Big nuts on the brake side. I purchased big cresent wrenches but they bike shops do sell wrenches for that purpose. If you want to give me your email address I can send you the instruction.

Took me about 45 mins total job. Very easy installation. You will need a chain with (help me out guys, I may have forgotten) I think it was 106 links. You may also need to realign your mounting for your brake line where it attaches to the top of the master cylinder. All in all, it was very simple... just take your time, follow directions, and do it right the first time.

Takes about 1 hr following the instructions the first time you install it. After doing it once or twice you can get it down to about 30-45minutes if you have the right tools.

Same here, but on the two axle nuts, I would and did myself is purchased an aftermarket axle nut and made it even faster. Get rid of the oem lock nuts and put on an aftermarket one, way easier and you dont have to torque it.
