Time for a bike ride!

Time for a bike ride!

Summer is the ideal time to explore the great outdoors on two wheels. But to keep your bike running smoothly even after many kilometres, the right care is crucial. At Selva, you'll find everything you need to optimise the maintenance and care of your bike. Here is a short guide on how to keep your bike fit:
1. regular cleaning
A clean bike not only looks better, it also works better! Dirt and dust can get stuck in moving parts and accelerate wear. With our special bike cleaners and brush sets, you can clean the frame, chain and wheels thoroughly and gently.
2. Lubricate and oil
After cleaning, it is important to lubricate all moving parts of your bike properly. We offer high-quality lubricants especially for the chain, which ensure smooth running and prevent rust formation. Don't forget to lubricate other parts such as the derailleur, brakes and bearings.
3. Tyres and air pressure
Check the air pressure of your tyres regularly. Too little air increases rolling resistance and can lead to punctures.
4. brakes and gears
Your safety comes first! Therefore, check the brakes and gears of your bike regularly.
5. storage and protection
A dry and safe place for your bike protects it from the weather and theft. A good lock is always a sensible purchase.
6. Tools for the road
Breakdown on the tour? No problem! With our handy multi-tools and repair kits, you are equipped for any situation.
With the right care products and a little attention, your bike will remain a faithful companion for many years. Take a look at our online shop and discover our comprehensive range of care products, tools and accessories for your bike.
We wish you a safe and enjoyable ride through the summer!
