Got my 50th video up on my YouTube channel, Brockley Bikes over the weekend. Just missed my birthday, so better get on with number 51.
Nearly over the line for the amount of required time watched so You Tube starts paying some money to hopefully replace the BIG part of my business Covid ripped out.
If you fancy giving me a helping hand or just want to see my take on bike repairs, I'd be very grateful...

Winter is on it's way and with the added amounts of rain we have had lately it's a good time to have your bike checked over.

One of the most common problems I see in the winter is worn out rims. This happens from letting your brake pads get too low and/or them grinding down from the residue left on the rims from riding in the rain. This can have disastrous consequences leading to your wheels exploding which can be both costly and result in a hospital visit.

If you don't believe me take a look at this video we made on blowing up bicycle wheels. Be vigilant about your bike upkeep and safety...
