Hi there,
I've been riding bikes as far back as I can remember, starting on my blue trike with big fat white tyres. I'm now mainly mountain-biking and commuting to work, with a bike for every situation!
Over the years I've always done all my own bike maintenance and repairs and recognise now how complicated things have become for many riders attempting to replace parts on their bike(s).
I'm now committed to making things easier for bike owners and retail staff, and am developing a free resource which makes it straightforward to find the correct specialist tools for components old and new. Most of the work has been done and I now need the help of fellow riders out there to fill the gaps! Once completed, this is something that will be maintained and hopefully be a useful resource for many. Any help much appreciated, thanks!
