WORKSHOP

A cycle should give many years of trouble free pleasure assuming a small amount of routine maintenance is carried out. This should reduce the risk of large repair bills when the cycle comes in for its regular service.

  • Keeping your cycle clean and the chain and sprockets lubed will not only increase the life of your chain but your sprockets will also last longer.
  • Check the cycle over regularly to ensure all the nuts and bolts are tight.
  • Check the crank bolts every ride.
  • Wash the bike using a normal hosepipe and the correct brushes and cleaning products, do not use a pressure washer as this will get into the bearings and wash out the grease.
  • Lubricate your gear/brake cables regularly with a specialist lubricant to ensure smooth action of your gears and brakes.
  • If you are unsure at all about what to do, please give us a call and we will be glad to advise you.
  • Please ensure your bike is clean before you bring it in, there may be an extra charge for cleaning before work can begin.
