    Using Sram Cassette and chain you are looking at around the e90 mark.

    e40 for cassette
    e20 for chain
    e30 for fitting and tune up.

    Could probably save around e30 if you bought the parts online.

    I've deleted a post and two follow-up responses.

    Anyone either directly or indirectly advertising their own business can expect an infraction going forward

    Thanks

    Hi, just wondering is there any hope for repairing a bike with a bent front fork or will it be very expensive?

    You *may* be able to fix it, however personally I wouldnt touch anything structural. Just replace it, steel fork for one of them you could get in the likes of rothar Id imagine for very very little
