It's all relative. A little time to you may be a lot of time to me, and $120 may be a little bit of cash for you but it's quite a bit for me. Call me a selfish idiot all you want - I still have to commute and eat.

To add that it takes me an hour to get to a garage to work on the bike, and then I cannot leave until I get the bike in working order. So doing things like hanging the caliper and going about doing other things are not really feasible at the moment.
