Cycling has become a popular lifestyle trend, and as bicycles serve as our essential companions on the road, regular inspections cannot be overlooked! So, the critical question arises: how should you inspect your bike yourself?

1. Inspect the Front Wheel, Brakes, and Hub

Modern bicycles commonly use quick-release skewers or thru-axles to secure wheels. Each requires a distinct inspection method:

  • Quick-release skewers:
    ① Loosen and open the skewer → Press down the lever → Rotate the nut on the opposite side until it snugly contacts the fork (or rear dropout) → Open the skewer again and tighten the nut inward by one full turn.
  • Thru-axles:

② The axle is threaded through the entire hub from one side of the fork and secured to the opposite fork/dropout → After tightening, shake the wheel laterally to check for hub stability.

2. Check Brake Pads

    • Hydraulic disc brakes: Require periodic oil refilling.
    • Mechanical disc brakes: If braking feels sluggish, adjust the cable tension or replace worn pads.
    • Rim brakes (caliper/V-brakes): Inspect the grooves on brake pads. Replace them if the longitudinal grooves are nearly worn away.

3. Inspect Tires

  • Check the tire bead (where the tire meets the rim) for uniform seating.
  • Examine the tread pattern and sidewalls: Replace tires if treads are excessively worn or sidewalls show damage.

4. Check Suspension

  • Inspect the front fork for hairline cracks or damage.
  • Check suspension fork inner tubes for scratches, and ensure no oil leaks around seals or lock rings.

5. Inspect Crankset and Pedals

  • Crank arms: Ensure they rotate freely.
  • Chainrings: Look for damage, missing teeth, or excessive wear.
  • Pedals: Spin them—if rotation is stiff, repair or replace. Confirm pedals are securely fastened to the cranks.

6. Inspect Seatpost and Saddle

  • Seatpost clamp: If parts shift or creak, disassemble, clean, lubricate, and reassemble.
  • Material-specific care: Apply grease to metal parts; use carbon fiber grip paste for carbon frames/seatposts.

7. Inspect Rear Wheel and Drivetrain

Repeat the front wheel checks for the rear hub, tire, and brakes. Post-ride inspections are especially crucial for detecting wear.

Only through meticulous inspections can you ensure safety and enjoyment on every ride! Finally, don’t forget your helmet!

Patellar Fracture: Scientific Exercise for Faster Recovery

If you have any queries or suggestions, please feel free to reach out via email to info@harisonfitness.com. We will do everything in our capacity to ensure that you love your experience with us.

When a patient experiences symptoms of a patellar fracture, they should immediately stop moving to avoid further injury to the fracture. Generally, treatment refers to non-surgical methods, where the patient needs to use a cast or brace to immobilize the injured leg for about 4 to 6 weeks.

Whether conservative or surgical treatment is chosen, medication is typically involved. It’s rare to treat fractures with just medication alone. While medications may have some effect, their healing process is slow, and they mainly serve to reduce inflammation or improve blood circulation. However, they cannot ensure that the fracture site will not displace.

If the fracture becomes displaced or is comminuted (shattered), surgical intervention will be required. After the doctor has properly managed and fixed the fracture, the recovery process can begin. During rehabilitation, certain exercises can be done to speed up recovery.

Exercise Guidelines:

  1. Standing position facing a wall, maintain a small arm’s distance. Keep your arm straight forward, resting against the wall. Keep your healthy leg straight, and extend the injured leg outward, then return to the starting position.
    Practice: Repeat 2 sets of 8 reps each.

  2. Standing position with your upper body upright and arms naturally hanging down. Begin stepping up and down a step while maintaining natural breathing.
    Practice: Repeat 3 sets of 30 seconds each.

  3. Standing position, with arms crossed in front of your chest, squat down, then return to standing. During the squat, ensure your knees point in the same direction as your toes. It’s normal to feel slight pain as your knees move, but if the pain is intense, check if your knee alignment or the squat depth is incorrect.
    Practice: Repeat 2 sets of 8 reps each.

The above exercises can improve the stability of the lower limbs and increase muscle strength. Practice them 40 minutes after meals, 2 to 3 times daily. It’s recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before starting these rehabilitation exercises to ensure they are appropriate for your specific recovery progress.
