My boys new bike!
#newbikeday
Except for the frame, forks and seat posts, all parts supplied and assembled by #TheFriendlyBikeMechanic 😁
It became a topic of conversation last night at the #manchester #Velodrome because of the cranks I put on it (short, square taper) but it clearly worked with him winning all the sprints and finishing joint 1st in the points race.
Looking forward to Newport this weekend!
@leon_miller not quite, it's a procaliber, but my wife has a Marlin and they're very cool too!
We bought it stock from the shop, then making it a #TheFriendlyBikeMechanic special after a few mods after Christmas 😊

By the way, still trying to sort out my online shop for #TheFriendlyBikeMechanic but we litterally have THOUSANDS of stuff with incredible prices on DMT #cyclingshoes and 50% off some women's cyling apparel!
Had a fantastic day with a pre-wedding shoot in #Liverpool, then tuned some bikes at #thefriendlybikemechanic .
Finished with coaching #GirlGuide on changing tires and essentials for day trips.
Highlight was an 11-year-old with a pristine vintage #Frenchbike —chrome shining, unique split top tube, and dynamo lights. She was knowledgeable and proud of it. #Biketooter 🙂

@nicd There are some rince free washing products out there. Just spray and wipe.
You can also buy gear specific degreasers which come either in foam or if liquid, won't freeze. Just spray and a quick rince.
Also look at the new Shimano CUES groupset. It lasts 3 times longer than hyperglide when used on ebikes and is really affordable! :)
