Far, far easier. Though I didn't really do much in terms of tuning up the mechanics of the bike (calibrate brakes, or derailleurs), just cleaned the hell out of the chain, re-lubed it and lubed the other joints. But that alone made a noticeable difference in how the bike rides, and it cost half of what I was about to pay to the shops (actually, well under half considering that I have enough of all of the cleaning and lubricating materials left to do it several more times).
