Just like motor vehicles, bicycles require regular tune-ups and proactive maintenance to minimize long-term costs. This is especially true for avid cyclists, high-performance bicycles, those who use bicycles for daily transport, and corporate bicycle fleets. The affects of the hot, salty Cayman environment degrade bicycle parts even faster, so scheduling regular maintenance makes repairs more cost efficient in the long term.
Craig recommends an annual or semi-annual standard tune-up for most bicycles, and depending on cycling habits/expected wear and tear, a monthly or quarterly maintenance plan agreement is advised. Corporate, hotel, and real estate properties with bicycle fleets generally require monthly service.
Craig will provide a free initial consultation to review the bicycle(s) and provide a plan/cost estimate.

A tune-up will keep most bicycles in top shape, enhance safety, and minimize long-term damage, like rust and corrosion. A standard tune-up includes the labor to change tires, tubes, cable, chains, and brake pads purchased from Craig's Cycles. Also includes basic maintenance outlined below:
Inspect frame, fork & components

Based on an agreement stipulating frequency of service, Craig's Cycles can manage regular, preventative maintenance for corporate or property fleets. Hotels, condo properties, and retail or commercial centers benefit the most from a bicycle fleet service plan because it minimizes unexpected large repairs, and keeps overall expenses cost efficient in the long term.
Fleet plan details are specific to each fleet, including the number and types of bicycles, property and frequency of use. Contact Craig to schedule a consultation and receive a cost estimate. As with other repair services, fleet plans include service labor and parts/accessories purchased from Craig's Cycles.
