Weekly Training Tip

Proper chain lubrication is essential to the ongoing operation of your bicycles.  How often you lube your chain depends on a variety of factors ranging from mileage, to weather, to road conditions.  One thing remains clear, a clean chain is a happy chain.  We suggest you clean and lube your chain after you ride.  This gives the lubricant a chance to settle into the pins and rollers.  Also make sure you dry the outer links so they resist attracting dirt and grime.  Roswell Bicycles sells a variety of lubricants that will help you keep your chain clean, quiet and protect your components (chainrings and cassettes). 

The ideal light setup combines a helmet-mounted spotlight and a bar-mounted unit with a broad-coverage beam. But if you can afford only one, a helmet-mounted light is better because it directs the light where you are looking. Mount it close to the center-top of your helmet.
