Bike repair

If the chain is dry and makes noise or too greasy and dirty, it may need to be cleaned and lubricated. I use Squirt Chain Wax, this is a wax based, long lasting dry lube that does not contain harmful solvents, is 100% biodegradable and environmentally friendly.

When your brake pads make a squeaking noise, they may be contaminated. A deep cleaning will most likely (but not always) solve this issue.

If the bike no longer brakes properly, the brake pads may be worn out.

If you have a flat inner tube or you have a worn outside tyre, I will replace it. I got 27,5" and 29" inner and outside mountainbike tyres.

If you can no longer shift / pedal properly and cannot get into the right gear, this can usually be solved by adjusting the derailleur.

When a derailleur hanger is bent it is said to be “out of alignment”. A misaligned hanger results in poor shifting.

Do you notice that your brake pressure is occasionally less and comes back when you squeeze a few times? Then there are air bubbles in brake lines. Bleeding ensures that the air bubbles go out.
