18 Quick Tips Every Man Needs To Know For His Bike!

Owning a bike and cycling it to work, for exercise or just for pleasure can be an extremely fun, rewarding and healthy experience. People everywhere love how cycling is not only good for your body and environmentally friendly, but also cost efficient and a great way to spend your time. On the flipside, while owning, maintaining and using a bicycle isn’t half as expensive, stressful or as much work as a car, there is a lot you need to know and learn, especially if you’re just starting out. To help, we have 18 smart and quick bike tips you need to know.

1. DIY Spoke Replacement

This is actually a pretty simple fix. Remove the tire and then the rim tape before taking off the broken spoke’s nipple (being careful not to lose it). In order to get the right replacement spoke, you can take out an intact one and use it as a measure. Thread the new spoke back in and seal with the nipple. Replace the rim tape and reattach the wheel!
