A dowel pin is essential for working with larger loads, such as those found on wheels, engine or brakes. This tool allows more force to be applied, making it easier to adjust or remove key parts on the bike.

Keeping the tires at the correct pressure is essential both for the safety and performance of the bike. A portable pressure gauge will allow you to check the tire pressure before each ride, avoiding unnecessary wear and ensuring more efficient driving.
- Puncture repair kit
A puncture can ruin a trip if you are not prepared. A repair kit includes stickers, an insert and, in some cases, CO2 cylinders to quickly inflate the tire. This kit is indispensable for road emergencies.
- Chain lubricant
The transmission chain requires constant maintenance. A good chain-specific lubricant prevents wear and extends the service life.

Having these tools at your disposal will not only help you to keep your bike in good condition, but will also prepare you to face any unforeseen event on the road.
