When it comes to bike set up and maintenance, it seems to me there are two distinct categories of rider….
Rider 1 – Spends hours tinkering with their bike. Keeps it immaculately clean, and has the vocabulary required to talk at length about tyre choice, suspension set up.
Rider 2 – Is scared of cleaning their bike because the dirt is probably holding it together. Changes their tyres when they need to (when they've turned to slicks), lets Rider 1 set their suspension up whilst smiling and nodding as if they have a clue what 1 is saying.
Which one are you?
[Thanks to the rider that used the last 20 secs of their jet wash at afan to clean my bike….. annual wash complete! 😀 ]
