As the days begin to get warmer and longer, many of us are starting to think about getting outside a bit more.

It you’ve got a bike that’s been sitting in the shed all winter, Team GB bike mechanic Peter Taylor talks you through how to ensure that it is safe and ready for riding.

In this short video, Peter will take you through what bike mechanics call the ‘M check’, which he carries out on a road bike from British Triathlon’s Official Bike Supplier, Beacon.

Beacon has a wide range of bikes to suit everyone from those getting back onto the bike, to experienced racers looking for a top-spec speed machine. Each model is built to order, and the staff at Beacon are experts in fitting you with the right bike to suit your needs.
