Learning Center
Bicycle Learning Centers (BLCs) are emerging as essential hubs for fostering cycling culture and education within communities. These facilities offer a comprehensive approach to cycling, providing instruction for riders of all ages and abilities, from beginners to experienced cyclists. By combining classroom learning, hands-on skill development, and safe practice environments, BLCs are instrumental in increasing bike safety, promoting bike commuting, and creating a more bike-friendly society. As cycling gains popularity as a sustainable and healthy mode of transportation, BLCs are playing a vital role in developing a new generation of confident and knowledgeable cyclists.
“Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving.” – Albert Einstein

Looking to keep your bike in peak condition? At I Know A Guy Bicycles, I’ve carefully curated a list of the best polishes, lubes, tools and cleaners that every cyclist should have in their maintenance toolkit.
Use What I Use
On the Road Accessories
On the Road, Accessories is what you need to take with you on your ride. These are very vital for keeping you going and not calling for help.
Polishes, Lubes, and Cleaners
What I use when detailing a frame (as sen in my videos) to cleaners and lubes to keep your ride going for miles and miles. Taking the scary out of buying used bikes.Tubes & Tires
Tubes & Tires, these what I use or suggest for the road bikes I sell or for those with similar bikes. Good tires can improve your experience and maybe prevent flats.
Workstands and Tools
Plopping your bike onto a sturdy workstand is a total game-changer—no more bending over or chasing a runaway wheel. Grab your Allen wrenches, chain whip, torque wrench, and whatever other gadgets you’ve got lying around, and you’ll be geared up to tackle everything from brake tweaks to cassette swaps in no time.
