To keep your bike in tip top condition, it's a good idea to have it serviced regularly - as often as every 4 months depending on how (much) you use it and where you store it. If you've ridden many miles between services be prepared for some parts to need replacing.
A Standard service will get your bike running as safely and smoothly as is possible without “major surgery”. (Please note parts are not included in the price)

Getting your bike serviced regularly is by far the most economical way of maintaining it. This gets easier the more I get to know your bike. I also offer a service reminder service.
And of course, It's always nice to get feedback on my work.
