What we see most

What is it actually doing?

Six things that come through the door most weeks, and what they usually turn out to be.

  • Gears skipping

    Usually cable tension, a bent hanger, or a chain and cassette worn past their limit.

  • Brakes feel wrong

    Usually worn pads, cable stretch, or air in a hydraulic line that needs bleeding.

  • Tyre keeps going down

    Often the tube, the rim tape or the casing behind it, and most likely a lack of sealant as well.

  • Chain noise

    Often a dry or stretched chain. A stretched one quietly wears the cassette with it.

  • Wheel is buckled

    Usually trued at the spokes, though a cracked rim or a pulled eyelet needs replacing.

  • Not sure what it needs

    Bring it in and describe what it is doing. That is usually enough to find it.
