Bicycle repair
If your bicycle has broken down, you can take it to a bicycle repair shop. Often, shops that sell bikes also repair them. It is a quick and effective solution: you can rest safe that it will be properly fixed! You can, of course, decide to fix it yourself. Bicycle parts can be bought in every bicycle shop and with a bit of help, you will be cycling again in no time!
