Common Mistakes People Make Regarding Basso in Sydney
- Choosing the wrong frame material – Bike frames are built using steel, aluminium, titanium, or carbon. Steel is strong and durable, but it is heavy, giving it a competitive disadvantage. Aluminium is lighter but stiff and less durable. It cannot be welded or easily bent back into shape. Titanium is the middle ground as it is lighter than steel and more durable than aluminium. However, it can be very expensive. Carbon is the most common material now used for racing bikes. It is ultra-light, stiff, and strong. Improved constructions methods have reduced earlier issues these frames had with cracks and frame failures, and these are the bikes most often seen at races such as the Tour De France.
- Purchasing poorly constructed components – Choosing a high-quality frameset and then saving money by purchasing inexpensive components will cost you more in the long run. Investing in quality components and other parts will reduce the amount of wear and tear on your frame, as well as the time and money spent on repairs and part replacements.
- Assembling your own bike – This is only a mistake if you are inexperienced, and not supported by an experienced bike builder. With inexperience comes costly mistakes, wasting your time and money. An experienced individual will be able to assemble your bike faster and correctly. An adequately assembled bike is not only essential to avoid costly repairs, but also for your safety as you ride. You do not want to lose a key component charging downhill.
