5 GOOD REASONS TO STORE YOUR BIKE IN WINTER
Winter is coming, and with it an annual question for many cyclists: where will I store my bike until the warm weather arrives?
For many, the cooler weather means the end of travel and cycling. While some people don't mind taking their bike as a roommate in winter, not everyone has the space to do so.
Although it is possible for everyday bikes to spend the winter outdoors, they are exposed to the ravages of winter: freeze-thaw cycles, humidity, snow, rain and ice. In addition, there are risks such as theft and damage caused by the constant passage of snowploughs.
Why not opt for a safe storage of your bike at Bicycles Quilicot ? Here are 5 good reasons to entrust your bike to us this winter!
Why store your bike with Bicycles Quilicot?
1. Your bike will spend the winter away from humidity and bad weather
On our storage racks inside our shops, your bike will be completely protected and will therefore be in optimal conditions to avoid damaging its components. You will be able to find your bike as good as new without worrying about whether the transmission or brakes have been damaged by frost, ice, and all those other little winter issues!
2. It will stay safe
A bicycle left on the street or even on a balcony in winter attracts attention and is therefore subject to the risk of theft. If you add to this the risks incurred by your bike in the face of the daily work of the snow removal teams, storing your bike safely is a good guarantee that it will be found whole and intact.
3. It will be ready to hit the road when you are
When it comes to getting back on the road, everyone has specific aspirations: some will venture out on two wheels as early as March, others will prefer the end of April... At Bicycles Quilicot, you can choose the storage period that suits you best and therefore get your bike back when you're ready to ride it again. With the option of a tune-up and cleaning, it will be as good as new with a complete overhaul so you can start the new season.
4. You will avoid the springtime rush to get your focus done
The early season tune-up is a must, and many riders want to have their bikes serviced by an expert as soon as the weather is fine so that they can ride with a clear head when the sun comes back out. This leads to an increased demand in the shops and therefore to delays in obtaining annual maintenance! If you store your bike with us with one of our tuning options, no worries, you will get your tuned machine back on the agreed date without having to wait for a slot to become available.
5. You will not lose space at home
A bike at home takes up space: whether it's on the floor, on a wall or on the ceiling, all of this is space eaten up in your living space. Obviously, the problem becomes even more important for enthusiasts who have several bikes for different purposes. Therefore, storing one or more bikes at Bicycles Quilicot will allow you to free up space in your home and to feel better at home, and of course to ward off any remarks on this subject from the people who share your roof ;)
So, are you convinced? Storage is indeed an excellent solution to take maximum care of your bike and prepare it for the next season.
Book your winter storage at Bicycles Quilicot now and start the winter with peace of mind!
