I've been speaking to lots of people selling their bikes recently, its amazing how many get their ride serviced once a year at a garage, and thats all the attention it gets. 'Yes mate its got full service history' they say. But does it use any oil I ask. 'Yeah they change it every year' Chain lube? You'd think it was a dirty word. I recently found out how bad brake calipers can go if you dont touch them, it actually scares me what some people may be riding out there.
Do people on here spned time tinkering? Or is things just left until they fall apart before problems are found?
Rant over.
Either way, I love bike shopping!
