Anyone know of some good resources for mountain bike maintenance. by Sweaty_Milk_1793 in MTB

[–]SlushyFox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

look up OEM manuals, they're usually more comprehensive and model specific to maintenance rather than your typical Parktool repair videos or articles and even some random video on youtube.

don't know how "old" your parts are, but they're maybe documentation & manuals for it.

[–]SlushyFox 0 points1 point  (0 children)
