Skills include:

  • Checking your tires for wear, proper inflation and locating important information
  • Assessing your brake pads, cables and housing for wear
  • Lubricating your chain, understanding gears and proper shifting technique
  • Ensuring that your frame and bike accessories are in good working order and properly mounted
  • Understanding bike lingo, identifying parts and the correct tools to use for repairs
