Bicycle Maintenance Guide and Riding Tips This page was last updated 24 May 2007. I often get asked about bicycle maintenance and repairs, and tips for how to ride efficiently. This little manual is intended as a summary of what I have learned over the years. I am not a professional mechanic. cover9_03 As soon as I learned about the new store, I got in touch with Alan to suggest the next stage of what's needed to get North American (or World) youth and their fathers involved in bike kustomizing: pre-fabricated display units stocked with the most desirable, affordable and simple-to-install kustom bike parts from the C.U.S. line, to be sold by local stores everywhere. I remember when I walked into my hometown Western Auto store and first saw inexpensive apehanger handlebars, banana saddles and other kustom goodies on display. I was in college at that time, and already owned a car, of sorts. But seeing those wild bike parts reminded me that my younger bro Dave's old 20" cantilever-framed sidewalk bike was gathering dust, rust and bird crap in our barn, and just begging to be used for something interesting. So, I bought the kustom parts, as well as some fresh wheels and tires from Western Auto's normal bike parts inventory, and built a kustom muscle bike.

Road bicycle The term road bicycle is used to describe bicycles built for traveling at speed on paved roads. Some sources use the term to mean racing bicycle. Other sources specifically exclude racing bicycles from the definition, using the term to mean a bicycle of a similar style but built more for endurance and less the fast bursts of speed desired in a racing bicycle; as such, they usually have more gear combinations and fewer hi-tech racing features.

Bicycle the Danube River Bike Route Bike Rating: Excellentt |Best Seasons: Summer or Early Autumn Nature of the Ride: The Danube River (Donau in German) flows from its source (at Donaueschingen) in the Black Forest of Germany, to the Black Sea— 2900 kilometers (1,700 miles) downstream. Serbia and Romania are not considered safe for western bikers, on and off the road, and are not discussed here. In Germany and in Hungary, many bikers do safely follow the Danube .

Choose between just the standard handlebar ones (white light front, red light back) or an additional light that fixes onto your helmet to make sure you’re extra visible.
