Mabye a silly question but I'll ask anyway.

I have a bike permanently set up on my turbo (tacx neo) and have been using it quite a bit recently. It was got me thinking about how often the chain needs lubing or cleaning, does the turbo itself need anything doing to it? What do you lot do?

  • Good question. I also use my bike outside, so I lube the chain for that anyway, so it's not an issue. I think I should probably wash the bike occasionally though!!

    My main effort is fixing my sh!tty Tacx trainer which is poorly designed and built. Wouldn't buy another.

    My turbo bike has been on it for a few years now and the chain gets cleaned and lubed about twice or three times a year, the turbo gets an occasional wipe down.

    Give the bar tape a proper good clean every so often, seriously! :shock:
