Hey All!!!!!
Just a heads up, only 4 days left to take advantage of Freewheel Bikes' Winter Overhaul Special! Now until the end of the month our Golden Wrench Overhaul is cut in half from $240 down to $120!!! 

Those prices are so low it would be insane not to bring in your bike.

Keeping up with your chain

Hey Dudes!!!
Just a reminder to change your chain regularly otherwise this might happen to you.
This is a chaining from one of the Freewheel employees who attempted to get through the winter on  his chain, however, the winter have other plans. As you can see, those teeth are worn down to the nub. 
As a chain wears, it will wear out the teeth on chain ring, This can be prevented by simply changing your chain regulatory.
So don't let this happen to you!!!! 
Come on by Freewheel and have your chain checked by one of our skilled mechanics.
