Inspect the bike for damage or wear
Check for any cracks, dents, or bends in the frame, wheels, or other components. Look for worn out brake pads, chain, and tires.
Clean and lubricate the bike components
Use a mild detergent and water to clean the bike, then dry it thoroughly. Apply lubricant to the chain, gears, and other moving parts to ensure smooth operation.
Adjust the brakes and gears
Check the brake pads for wear and adjust them if necessary. Ensure the gears shift smoothly and make any adjustments to the derailleur if needed.
Tighten any loose bolts or screws
Use a set of Allen keys to check and tighten any loose bolts or screws on the bike, especially on the handlebars, seat post, and pedals.
Replace worn out parts
If any components are too worn or damaged, replace them with new parts. This may include the chain, brake pads, tires, or cables.
