TIP OF THE WEEK 04/27/2010
0 Comments
 
Spring is here in Southwest Virginia.
Time to get the bike dusted off and tuned-up.

Here is a tip of the week:

Store your bike in a dry area like an enclosed garage, dry basement or even in your living area (like the bike that Seinfeld never used).
If you store it outside or even in a carport the steel components will rust due to humidity and can eventually fail (bolts, dderailleurs, chains, etc.)
Also insects will find a home in the open holes in the bike frame. I had a customer bike with a black ant nest in the handle bars.

The bike is a sizeable investment... take care of it and it will last a long time .
