Help me learn about my bike please!

Hi all,

Just sitting here diddling along at work thinking about getting out on my bike again in 2 hours 19 minutes time, and just wondering do any of you know any websites that will teach me anything at all about bikes?

I would love to fiddle around with it and play with it at weekends to get to know my bike inside out, but wouldn't know where to start! I don't know where much of anything is on a bike at all :-( maybe one of you can tell me all about it when we meet, but I just wondered if there were any good websites that explained what all the parts are!

Hey man,

Check this site out that Sam posted in another thread, tons of good info man although probably I would recommend you gettin a manual specifically for your bike if you wanted to learn more about it.

This will keep ya busy for a while anyways..

yep,get a manual and take photos as you take things apart,that way you will have something to fall back on if you have trouble putting it back together

. start with simple tasks and build up to more technical stuff as you gain confidence

The best advice I can give you is..........

If it aint broke - Don't fix it

Have to agree with spree on this one, if it dont need taking apart, leave it be.
