Frequently Asked Questions

What essential maintenance should I perform before every ride?

Perform a quick ABC safety check: A (Air) check tire pressure, B (Brakes) inspect pad wear and lever response, and C (Chain) ensure your chain is clean and properly lubricated.

How often should I lubricate my bike chain?

For road riding in dry conditions, apply chain lube every 100 to 150 miles. For gravel, mountain biking, or riding in wet weather, degrease and re-lubricate your chain after every ride to prevent corrosion and grit buildup.

What is the difference between wet, dry, and wax chain lubricants?

Dry Lube: Lightweight formula that goes on dry to prevent dust and dirt accumulation in summer conditions.
Wet Lube: Viscous, water-resistant formula designed for rain, mud, and harsh winter riding.
Chain Wax: Creates a dry, ultra-low-friction coating that keeps drivetrains clean and saves wattage.

How do I know when my bike chain needs replacement?

Use a chain wear indicator tool. If your chain shows 0.5% to 0.75% stretch, replace it immediately to prevent damaging your expensive cassette and chainrings.
