Description
This entry level service for your bike begins with a light fifteen minute clean to get the bike nice clean enough to work on. I then proceed to check the gears making sure the chain is not stretched and is well lubricated. I check the gear hanger alignment, then the gear cables and gear mechs are seen to, adjusting and refining the indexing, to make sure the gears on your bike are properly operating and aligned. I then check your brake pads for wear and any embedded debris is removed and brake cables are checked. I then check the hub, spokes and rim on both wheels, finishing with a bearings check on the bottom bracket and headset, adjusting any minor play in them as seems necessary.
