Ready for the TUNE UP
The one day Bike Tune Up Workshop at Escapades was a success, infact it turned into a BIKE OVERHAULING for Manoj. Manoj pedaled all the way from Corlim to Ponda covering a 20+ Kms one way. The workshop began at 10am with Donald, Jagdish, Raju, Hazrath, Anil and Me.
Fortunately (should I say unfortunately?) Donald’s bike had a flat in front tube, it was a first hands on experience for Donald in patching up the leak on the tube.

After the demo by me on Tuning of Deraillers (Front and Rear on Donald’s bike) it was Manoj’s turn to put his bike on the workstand. Manoj eagerly set to work on his bike and managed to get grease on his hands, shorts, t-shirt and where not.
Rear derailler clean up
With all the mechanics around we stripped the bike naked; wheels, deraillers, bottom bracket, fork and all. After cleaning thoroughly, the bike was assembled chiefly by Manoj with helping hand from Raju.
Rear Cogs Clean Up
Within the span of 3 working hours, we managed to tune up one bike and overhaul another.
After the lunch, Manoj test rode the KHS ALITE 1000 trail bike and then rolled off on his TREK 4300 all smooth and shiny!

Handle stem in Trek 4300 is in reverse position. Just change it into upright position & feel the comfort level.

ReplyDelete@ Roshan - the stem is deliberately put that way by the rider ! for agressive position !
ReplyDelete@ Pushpender Chaudhary - Thanks !
