Just as you regularly take your car to the garage for servicing, your mountain bike also needs regular maintenance. The chain needs to be oiled, otherwise it will grind. The bearings need to be lubricated, otherwise they will eventually stop working. And one or two other parts on the bike regularly need a portion of grease. We show you how to look after your bike properly and which parts you should definitely lubricate:
1. thoroughly clean the components to be lubricated beforehand, otherwise a grinding paste will form
2. keep oils, greases and other lubricants far away from the brakes
3. better not to lubricate than to lubricate incorrectly.
