About this site

Dexorari is a small reference site that gathers practical bicycle maintenance notes for everyday riders in Canada.

What this site is

The pages here focus on three topics that cover most routine upkeep: chain care, brake adjustment, and seasonal tune-ups. The writing aims to be clear and specific, with the Canadian climate in mind, so a reader can follow a routine rather than wade through general advice.

How the notes are written

Each guide describes steps and checks in plain language and points to publicly available reference material for further reading. Where exact figures depend on a specific component, the text says so instead of inventing a number. Component specifications differ between manufacturers, and the safe value is always the one in the documentation for your own parts.

What this site is not

This is a reference site, not a workshop. It does not sell parts or repairs, and it does not replace a qualified mechanic for safety-critical work such as hydraulic brake bleeding or structural inspection. When a job is beyond routine adjustment, the guides say to hand it over.
