Im hoping someone smarter than me with bikes can answer this for me,
I've taken out a bike that's been in windowed storage for over 12 years so the lady can ride with me too. It's only been ridden for a dozen times and it looks practically brand new, However with a bike that's been sitting in storage for as long as 12 years, is it safe to ride it? Just thinking about the rubber on the tires, the rust on brake/shifter cables and possible rust on the front suspension. it has been exposed to sun and temperature changes during those years
thanks
