Whether or not you have a significant other to enjoy Valentine’s Day with this year, you can always count on your bike to be there for you.
Here are 5 ways you can show your bike some real love:
- Put a ring on it. 2 rings actually. Ok I mean RIMS. A wheel upgrade is the nicest thing you can treat your bike to. (Send me a message to enquire now)
- Get it wet. Yes, wash the thing. A clean bike is quieter to ride and looks better, obviously. Try not to use a pressure-washer near the bearings in your BB, hubs and headset.
- Use lube. A clean, lubed chain is quieter to ride and lasts longer. SO will your cassette and chainrings. Remember to check your chain’s wear by using a wear indicator or chain-checker and replace when it reaches 0.75%.
- Use protection. A product like Bike Shield will help your frame look better for longer. Helmets are always recommended, as are sunglasses, gloves and sunscreen.
- Ride her hard. Your bike loves to be ridden. Let’s be honest, she was made for it. Enjoy!
Happy Valentine’s Day from WheelBuilder!
