Why is maintenance important?<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

A well-maintained bike is not only safer but also rides much better. By having regular maintenance performed, you prevent unexpected defects and ensure your bike stays in top condition. <\/p>\n

Do you mainly use your bike for short trips or on the weekend? Then a service once a year is usually sufficient. If you cycle daily or make longer trips, for example for commuting or with children in the cargo bike, we recommend having your bike checked twice a year. <\/p>\n

With timely maintenance, you extend the lifespan of your bike, prevent expensive repairs, and help your bike retain its value. This way, you can keep cycling worry-free in every season. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

What does a service involve?<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

When your (cargo) bike comes in, we'll look together at what maintenance is needed. We check the status of the brakes and tires and see if there is any wear and tear. If it turns out that certain parts need to be replaced, you'll receive a price proposal immediately. <\/p>\n

Should something new come up during the service, we'll always contact you to discuss it. This way, you know exactly what to expect and will never face unexpected costs. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
