It's recommended to service your bike wheels every 6 months or after every 1,000 miles of riding. Regular checks can help catch any issues early and keep your wheels performing at their best.
For wheel installation, you'll need a few basic tools: a tire lever, a pump, and a wrench for the axle. Having the right tools on hand makes the process smoother and more efficient.
If you notice your bike pulling to one side or hear a rubbing sound when you spin the wheel, it may be time for truing. A properly trued wheel ensures a safe, straight and stable ride.
Yes, you can install wheels yourself if you have the right tools and follow the proper steps. However, if you're unsure, it's always best to consult a professional to avoid any mishaps.
Regular maintenance includes checking the spoke tension, inspecting the rim and spokes for damage, and ensuring the hub is properly running and lubricated. Keeping up with these tasks will prolong the life of your wheels.
