In the last episode of our six part series helping you to make 2022 your best year on the bike, we’re honing in on the steed itself. We discuss why you should give your bike some TLC, whether that’s your four-season dependable, a snazzy summer bike that’s been in hibernation, or something that’s been tucked away in the shed under a blanket waiting for some more sunshine. We quiz mechanic Vicky Balfour (she/her) on where to start when it comes to home mechanics, and why you should even consider it in the first place, together with BikeRadar.com’s deputy editor and serial bike tinkerer Jack Luke (he/him) and host Katherine Moore (she/her). A little mindful mechanics can not only unlock the performance potential of your bike, but also make sure that you get every last mile out of those all-too-scarce parts.
