Expert Urges Cyclists to Carry Bike Repair Kits to Avoid Accidents
An industry experts urges cyclists to carry bike repair kits on rides to avoid becoming a bicycle accident victim.
(firmenpresse) - According to the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control, 500,000 people are treated in emergency rooms across the nation as a result of a biking accident, and of those 700 people die from their injuries.
But contrary to popular belief, bicycle accidents that involve a collision between a cyclist and a motorist are rare. In fact, most bicycle accidents involve only the rider and are due to a defect in the bike or improper maintenance.
€œEvery cyclist knows to wear a helmet in case of a crash with an automobile,€ says a spokesman from ToolBeast, a [portable bike repair kit](https://www.amazon.com/My-16---1-ToolBeast-Handheld/dp/B00YWCV592/ref=sr_1_1?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1466095813&sr=1-1&keywords=bike+tool). €œBut we need to get the word out about the most common reason for bike accidents: a bike that€™s in need of repairs.€Â
The most common bicycle defects that cause injuries are improper tube or tire pressure levels or initial installation, parts fatigue, or loose parts. And injury lawyers warns that if a cyclist neglects his bike and it results in an accident, the rider can be held accountable for the accident.
€œIt€™s a shame that this isn€™t given more attention in the press,€ says the spokesman. €œIt may seem minor, but if more cyclists carried bike repair kits with them when they rode, they could quickly fix an issue that arises while out on the road. That would reduce a lot of accidents.€ The other three leading causes of bicycle crashes are motorists that collide with bikes, defects in the roadways, and product malfunction.
€œThe one thing cyclists can control is the proper maintenance of their bikes and ensuring that they€™re equipped to handle any repairs that crop up while on the road,€ says the spokesman. €œAnd it€™s an easy fix€”just carry an [all-in-one tool](https://www.amazon.com/My-16---1-ToolBeast-Handheld/dp/B00YWCV592/ref=sr_1_1?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1466095813&sr=1-1&keywords=bike+tool) on the ride.€Â
