Winter Bike Maintenance

Rusty bikeA little extra attention is needed for bike maintenance in winter time when riding outside. The Boston area conditions can be nasty to delicate bike parts. I recently came across a great blog post at bostonbiker.org that details pretty thoroughly many issues related to winter bike maintenance, along with providing specific recommendations for the perfect winter bike setup - a fixed gear aluminum bike with full fenders and a sealed bottom bracket and only a front brake. Read the article and find out why.
