The best bike is the bike you ride!

My overwhelming philosophy since I started in the retail cycling business is that a bike is only as good as the amount it gets ridden. Whether an issue of fit or practicality, a bike needs to make its owner want to get out and use it.

A little bicycle education

It's very important to make sure that you use the correct names when you are describing the parts of your bike.  Failing to name the part correctly can cause issues with getting a problem resolved or cause you to order the wrong parts.    With that in mind, the link below shows some of the correct names for parts you might find on a vintage bike.  You can click on the picture to see the labels better, too!
