100-Mile Tune Up

I took my Cannondale in for its first tune up.  Because it is a new bike, Cameron (the very helpful I.Martin sales representative who helped me wade through all of my choices in bikes) asked me to bring the bike in after I had ridden it about 100 miles in order to make sure everything on the bike was working properly.  I’m glad he presented that as an option, because over the last few rides I’ve noticed a few things I wanted to check.  For example, I’ve noticed a discrepancy between my odometer mileage and the odometer mileage of other riders, so I asked the service team at I.Martin to test the odometer to make sure it’s recording the mileage accurately.  I also asked them to check out the gears as I’ve noticed that when I change into certain gears the chain sounds like it’s not catching the new gear smoothly.  It was hard to describe the sound when I dropped off the bike, but Ryan adjusted the derailleurs and now my bike is good as new.  Thanks, Ryan!
