1/ Bike use and the type of bike you need

There are three primary categories of bicycle: road bikes, mountain bikes and hybrid bikes. As their names suggest, they are suited to specific uses – road cycling for road bikes, off-road or cross-country cycling for mountain bikes and some degree of both for hybrid bikes. The first step in buying a bike is deciding which of these will best suit your needs.

2/ Cycling goals and budget

Having decided upon the type of cycling you will be doing and subsequently the type of bike you need, it is important to then focus on what you want most out of your bike. For example if you are cycle competitively, what are your long-term goals – is it to reach new milestones, or are you more focused on the social aspects? Alternatively, if you are a commuter, consider the cycling you will primarily do – are the roads rough? If so, you may need a bike with additional comfort features. This can be helpful in finding a bike that is comfortable, functional and affordable.

3/ Size selection and bike fitting

When choosing a bike, the size of its frame is important; selecting a frame that is the right size for you is paramount. As such, it is important to actually test ride a prospective bike to see how well suited it is, to your needs. You must remember also, that once you have purchased your bike, its fitting can be altered to suit your needs. Fitting, in this case, refers to seat height, saddle position, reach and handlebar height. Expert advice can be helpful to properly fit your new bike. As one of the leading Brisbane bike shops, we take the time to help fit your bike properly and if you need an adjustment, just drop by.

Common Questions To Ask Your Brisbane Bike Shop

#1 How do you select the right size bike

Finding the right sized bike frame can be challenging. The ideal ratio between the size of a rider and the size of their bike is determined using a formula. First, you must measure the length of your inside leg or inseam when standing straight and barefoot. This measurement (in centimetres) must then be multiplied by a number that is unique to either mountain bikes or road bikes – 0.56 or 0.65 respectively. The resulting number is the ideal frame size – or height – of your bike. As this can be a little confusing, we recommend speaking to an expert, or consulting a bike-sizing chart.

#3 How often should your bike be serviced?

Making sure your bike is regularly serviced is a great way to increase its lifetime, its performance and safety features. Typically, your Brisbane bike ought to be serviced 2-4 times per year and there are several reasons for this. The foremost, is wear and tear faced by bicycles in everyday use. Given the gradual nature of this wear it can go unnoticed, however your bike’s performance will suffer considerably. If your bike is stored in a dry area and doesn’t see harsh daily use, then a twice-annual service should be sufficient. Alternatively, if you don’t mind getting your bike a bit wet or perhaps lack the space to store it indoors, then 3-4 services per year might be necessary.

#5 What should I do to keep my bike in the best condition?

Maintaining your bike is an ongoing task and there are several simple ways you can maximise your bike’s condition. Storing your bike in a dry, shaded area will minimise corrosion, faded paint and perishing rubber. We also recommend regularly inspecting your brakes and tyre pressure to ensure that both components are not subject to excessive wear. Additionally, lubricating your chain with grease or water dispersant can improve your bike’s performance and lifespan. Finally, to ensure that your bike and all of its components are in perfect condition, we suggest seeing an experienced Brisbane bike mechanic 2-4 times per year – it can save you money in the long run and keep you cycling at your best.
