Getting your bike ready for spring

If you’re finally getting your bike out of the shed and dusting it off, this video is for you.

We’ve done a quick run through of our basic checks to ensure your bike is in decent condition before you start riding it again this spring.

We cover cleaning, gear checks, greasing the chain and moveable parts, checking the headset and offer lots of tips and tricks to make sure your bike is working at its best.

Why bother doing a check?

Regular basic maintenance will lower future costs of servicing, reducing wear and tear and keeping you safer when you’re out riding. A clean, well-oiled bike is more enjoyable to ride and works better!

Have a look at our video for our top tips.

All you need is a rag, some chain wax and a lubricant, as well as general bike cleaner. None of these items have to be expensive! Keeping your bike in top condition is about little and often!
