tyres for mountain bikes

tyres for mountain bikes
title for a few hours in your local mountain bike park? What do you need to take to ensure that you are, if something goes wrong on the track. This handy checklist covers the main tools and other items I would on a two to three hours' drive, which to me is not too far from civilization. On a short trip you do not want to be burdened with too much equipment, but you must meet the minimum requirements for the potential for error and bad weather gear.

Clothing

* Bike shorts
* Suitable Cycling Top breathable material dries quickly - no T-shirt
* In an ideal situation right bike socks
* Cycling Shoes
* Gloves to reduce pressure on the hands and store them in a crash --

Depending on the season and the amount you drive in the implementation:

* Waterproof Jacket
* Leg and arm warmers


Personal Items

* Riding Glasses
* Enough water and / or sports drink
* An energy bar or two
* Very simple first aid kit
* Hiking, if the signage is not very large
* Cell phone - it can not in all areas, but worth a
* Ideal sunscreen with insect repellant

Tools

You can use a number of tools and spare parts for every possible situation, but it is not practical or necessary, on a short trip. If you have great gear failure the way to the car is not too far. So, here is the bare minimum to have on board:

* Pump
* Multi-Tool, which is a chain of switches and all necessary Allen keys
* Replacement pipe valve with the right connector for your bike and pump
* Tire levers - which, through the multi-tools, which I have just do not seem to intersect.
Puncture repair kit * Strength
* Spare chain links, if your chain needs this

And with the right equipment, there are a few things you can do before the trip, including:

* After the bike regularly
* Check the tire pressure
* Check for any obvious cracks
* Check your wheels are true and there are no loose spokes
* Make sure brakes and gears are in order
