Frame Preparation
Kemsing Bikes offers highly specialised work in the form of frame prep which is reaming, tapping and facing the surfaces on bikes where bearings meet the frame. This goes for bikes made from Steel, Titanium, Carbon and Aluminium.
Many bikes are not setup in the first place correctly with faced and reamed surfaces (even very high end bikes!) and so issue develop with bottom brackets, headsets etc not being fitted correctly (squarely amongst other things) and causing unnecessary friction, creaking etc.
