Avoid bicycle failures with regular check ups

[@anielyantra1]

I appreciate your intent but the 20,000 foot view is steel for frames and aluminum for rims with rim brakes is a far and away more reliable system. I ride a 40 year old frame with 20 year old parts.....can't do that with anything carbon! Don't need a check-up just regular service and very little of that with sealed bearings. Just tires and brake pads with an occasional cleaning.

About the technical derails I don't know, but the traditional materials are long-lasting and fun to ride

+@anielyantra1 For lots of folks though, having a trained eye looking over their bike is a good way to spot things that need attention before they blossom into bigger problem. Even a steel frame that has an underlying weld defect can be caught before it fails!

+@anielyantra1 The check up is also a good way make sure you’re getting your regular service

+@BartAnderson_writer Agreed!
