Gear Explain helps you level up your gear knowledge. We make bicycles, cars and everyday gear easier to understand, so you can choose, use and look after them with confidence.
Whether you are a seasoned gearhead or just getting started, our goal is the same: reliable information in plain language, with no jargon walls and no hype.
What we cover
- How it works — what is actually happening inside gears, transmissions and drivetrains.
- Buying guides — what matters, what doesn't, and how to compare specifications.
- Maintenance — simple routines that keep your gear running smoothly and can save you time and money.
- Tire and wheel care — how to clean and protect your wheels safely.
- Reviews and comparisons — honest opinions and side-by-side looks at the options worth considering.
- Accessories — useful extras that improve your everyday experience.
How we work
We research our guides and write them for real-world use, and we update them when something changes.
Some articles may contain affiliate or partner links. If you buy through them, we may earn money at no extra cost to you. It never changes what we recommend.
