On each bike, volunteer mechanics check and service all of the items on the list above.
We ENSURE THE SAFETY OF EACH BIKE MAKING certain:
Bike frames are not cracked or damaged.
Brakes, cables and brake levers stop the bike effectively.
Drivetrains (gear sprockets, cables, derailleurs and gear shifters) ensure efficient pedaling and gear changing.
Tires, tubes and wheels roll smoothly.
Headsets (steering column) and handlebars steer the bike safely.
Seat-posts and seats provide a comfortable ride.
Pedals, cranks and chain are in good condition.
Reflectors are on the front and rear wheel spokes, at the handlebar and on the seat-post.
We clean and regrease unsealed bearings in the wheels, the headset (steering column) and bottom bracket (behind the pedal cranks) to make sure everything moves smoothly.
OUR QUALITY CONTROL PROCESS MAKES SURE EVERYTHING WAS DONE RIGHT.
Our most experienced mechanics double check to see that our refurbished bikes meet our standards on every item on our checklist.
