I have a Cytronex which uses a standard Trek 7.3FX. I have been wondering whether it would be worthwhile learning how to do basic maintenance on it.
Whenever I have taken anything off a bike (a long long time ago), it tended to stay off, especially the complicated looking bits, like the dangly thing which hangs off the rear wheel.
I don’t remember ever getting the gears to work properly again after removing the rear wheel to repair a puncture.
Does anyone know of any good books, sites where I can learn the basics? I would probably buy an old banger to practice on before getting too carried away.
Thanks
Steve
