In our shop, when maintaining the Nexus hubs (for people who make large milage) we use Nexus oil instead of grease. The hub is shifting better (also with low temperatures), freewheels better and moves more efficient. One downside: you need to do this more often, say once a year / 2 years...

We sold quite a few Giant Revive's in our shop and these wheels are not pressed wheels but are spoked wheels with plastic covers. Underneath the covers are 20 spokes in a 5x4 spoke layout. The plastic covers made a lot of noise and wheels were discontinued because spokes broke, the wheels were...

Great story Flecc......but imho you don't have to use rubber solution on the patch. Just a little on the punctured surface of the tube. The patches are ready for use. In the old days they cut patches from an old inner tube, then they had to put rubber cement to it. (P.S. some 10.000 punctures...

In our shop we do sell Sparta and Batavus pedelecs. They have a direct drive rear wheel motor with a screw on 7 speed Shimano freewheel. Because of the motor in the rear wheel there is little strain on the chain. The chainset needs replacing between 7000 and 12000km depending on the...

Until from 1996 to the first of October 2009 people in Holland needed a "bromfiets" certificate. Everyone born before the first of June 1980 could get it against payment at the city hall. People born after this date needed to do a theoretic exam. The minimum age for the certificate is 16 years...

All blocks are made with different compounds. The harder the compound the more squealing and rim wear. Due to wear of the pivots of the brakes it gets more mechanical clearance. The squealing is caused by vibration. The solution could be new brakes but we mount soft pads from Shimano. These pads...

I'm an experienced (32 years) bike mechanic. It takes a very experienced hand to build / align wheels. Many of my customers who tried it themselves made the wheel worse then it was before. In a bike shop it will cost you probably 10 euro's and you are sure it's ok. If you want to learn this...

Hi Guys I live in the Netherlands Village: IJsselstein

Great story and beautiful pictures. The Sahel looks great and a Panasonic system is perfect. Love to see the pictures of the area you live in. My country is unfortunatly to crowded and flat. Keep up posting your rides :)

@Eddie 1. Remove the handlebar complete (mostly 1 bolt) 2. Unscrew the front fork (32 or 36 mm nut) 3. Cut the cables Within one minute bye bye bike :eek: , sorry Eddie Put the chain between the frametubes

Could also be chain alignment. From behind the bike with the motor cover off check if the chain is in direct line with all off the sprockets. Rotate the chain to see if there's no bent in it. Is the rear sprocket in correct position, bent inside teeth outside or have a false flat sprocket...
