Bicycle and motorcycle owners urged to adopt preventive maintenance practices
Experts highlight that regular cleaning, lubrication, and proper storage can dramatically extend the life of bicycles and motorcycles while keeping them safe and efficient. In Brazil, David Peterle, CEO of Oggi Bikes, stresses that selecting the right model for a rider’s intended use reduces wear and maintenance needs, adding, “Muitas pessoas pensam apenas no preço na hora da compra, mas a escolha do modelo correto faz toda a diferença.”
In Mexico, motorcyclists are reminded to check tire pressure, keep the bike clean to avoid corrosion, change oil according to manufacturer schedules, and maintain proper chain tension and lubrication. Both sets of guidelines aim to prevent premature component failure, lower repair costs, and enhance overall riding experience.
