Derailleur adjusting is hell. Even my preferred bike shop cannot adjust mine correctly. We've come to an agreement: as long as the front derailleur doesn't change gear and the higher gear on the rear one work, it's okay. No point spending time getting it perfect since it will not stick anyway.

I used to do my own maintenance, but considering how cheap the bike shop is, I prefer to give them my bike to have good service and advices. Note that it's not out of laziness or lack of tools since I repair cars as a hobby, which require much more tooling and time. And also since my bike is my daily vehicle, I'd rather have it serviced by a pro.
