The Bicycle Maintenance Guide differs to other repair apps on the AppStore because it is one of the only apps to be packed with quality video content. Most other apps just content text and images. The Bicycle Maintenance Guide app is unique and differs to other content found online, such as YouTube and Parktool, because the majority of the apps content can be found and accessed with no internet connection. This means you can use the app to help repair your bike even when you're out in the sticks with no internet connection, to get you home or to your local bike shop. The app is the most expansive bicycle repair guide in the App Store with over 100 sections, 60 professionally filmed videos containing over 7.5 hours of footage, 180+ high resolution images and over 50,000 words. The Bicycle Maintenance Guide app is a complete guide to bicycle repairs, shown and instructed by two world class bike mechanics - Mike Rawson and Chuck Buckley. Mike is a Senior Service Technician at a top end bicycle company and was a Team GB Mechanic for 7 years, where he covered the Olympic Games, World Championships and European Cycling Tours. Chuck was a Head Mechanic of a UK professional cycling team for a long period before returning to NZ where he now owns and runs a bike shop. The app is broken up into 5 areas, these are:- REPAIRS • Exclusive access to our private YouTube channel featuring 60 professionally shot HD video tutorials. These videos are not available on-line without this app. • Each video tutorial is backed up with a list of tools required and fully presented step by step instructions with hi-resolution photographs. • Comprehensive written tutorials backed up with high quality imagery to illustrate how to perform your own repairs AT THE ROADSIDE • An additional 8 video tutorials which can be viewed in an emergency whilst out riding. • A unique feature with ‘get out of jail’ tricks that will get the rider home after a major breakdown at the roadside. One video shows how to use a £5 note to repair a torn tyre. • Each of these videos also backed up with a list of tools required and fully presented step by step instructions with hi-resolution photographs. COMPONENTS • Annotated and clearly labelled hi-resolution photographs of each component on a bicycle.

Very detailed and easy to understand
Helped me a lot in fixing my bike and now I can save y money!!!! Thumbs up !!!!
A+++
Awesome app that will enable you to have the confidence to fix/maintain ALL aspects of your bike no matter what you ride! The recent update which allows for you to reference the guides without internet/cellular service was a HUGE improvement. Get it! You won’t be disappointed.
App Review
I most frequently ride gravel and this app is especially useful when I am in an area with limited service yet I can still access all “tools” necessary to deal with a mechanical. Great app and extremely user friendly!
Great App for novice mechanics
I know just enough to get myself in trouble with most things on my bikes. I’m fortunate to have pro level mechanics in my circle for the more complicated issues. But when I’m in that in between spot I need a good reference guide. This app has gotten me through a number of binds including a Di2 issue during a 100 mile gravel race in a remote area. I highly recommend this app.
Great App
This app is fantastic and very easy to use. I am not a bike mechanic but fairly handy. This app will work for all levels of mechanical skill. I highly recommend this for cyclists or for the casual rider.
Must have for any cyclist
Though I am an engineer, adjusting the derailleurs always drove me nuts. This app put an end to that, all set and done within 5 minutes. All the videos and descriptions are spot on and easy to follow. I use this app for pretty much everything I do mechanically on the bike and it extended the range of stuff I do at home vs bringing the bike to a shop. Hands down the best app for cyclists and as essential as a helmet.
Fantastic tool for new and old cyclists
Very well done, good content, easy to understand and very well structured. I find it easier to find what I’m looking for, compared to just searching on YouTube. I’ve been toying with bikes since I was 10, but so much has changed and I’m discovering a lot of new things
This is a HUGE update which has nearly doubled the amount of content in the app - all things mountain bike, road, gravel are covered!
