What a Bicycle Service Includes
A proper bicycle service starts with a mechanical inspection. The workshop checks the condition of key parts, listens for wear-related issues, and separates urgent repairs from optional maintenance before any extra work is approved.
Common services include a standard tune-up, brake adjustment and component service, gear and drivetrain service, puncture and tyre repair, and a bicycle safety inspection. Each service is handled according to the bicycle's condition and the work it actually needs.
