If your bike doesn't feel comfortable, even a short commute can become something you don't look forward to. However, you don't necessarily need a new bike to make your journey more enjoyable - a few simple adjustments or upgrades can make a big difference.
Here are some of the things we recommend checking if your bike isn't feeling quite right.
Friday 5th June was a proud day for everyone at Frontline Bikes as we attended this year's Bridge Project graduation ceremony at the Mansion House.
Shorter days, wet weather, and cold conditions during the winter months can make cycling less appealing for some. If this is you, then your bike will likely need a bit of attention after months of sitting idle, to make sure it’s safe, smooth, and ready to ride.
Getting around Dublin can be a daily challenge - endless traffic jams, ghost buses, and the high cost of having a car all add up. Cycling however is a practical, accessible solution that makes commuting around the city easier, healthier, and more affordable.
Frontline Bikes was set up by Frontline Make Change in 2020, when it opened its doors in Inchicore, Dublin 8. Since then, it has grown to include an upcycling and training centre that delivers a social and environmental impact by providing training to people with backgrounds of addiction, long-term unemployment, and imprisonment. The centre uses donated and abandoned bikes, preventing waste and giving them new life through hands-on repair and upcycling. The refurbished bikes produced by trainees are then sold in the shop, supporting both our social mission and our circular economy approach.
