The knowledgeable repair team at Cyclemotive inspects tires, frames, and chains and performs guaranteed repair services to keep bikes operating at optimal performance. After assessing a two-wheeled friend's overall health by testing the brakes and showing the rear reflector a few Rorschach cards, sure-handed cyclesmiths administer ether a basic or deluxe tune-up. The comprehensive tune-up sequences include maintenance measures such as a thorough check of derailleurs to make for smooth shifting, a truing adjustment of wobbly wheels that boosts pedal pumping efficiency and eases momentum retention, and a cable and drivechain cleaning and lubing. In addition, surgical adjustments are made to the tension of the brakes, ensuring riders can stop on a dime, pick it up, and buy a Chiclet without ever dismounting. Cyclemotive bike doctors see patients by appointment only, so customers should call ahead to check availability.
