Sean can bring your bike to an ultimate place

Most people with bicycles, this writer included, don’t treat them as well as they might, writes Brian Byrne. Beyond a quick wipe down now and again and maybe a degrease and re-lube of the chain gear, the machines live in sheds when not in use, not especially thought about.

But then there are those who do think more of their bicycles than maybe they do of their cars. Hillcrest-based Sean Clissmann figures he has the beginnings of a business based on them. But his BeSpoke Bike Care is just as useful for the families who might go cycling along the byways and greenways at the weekends.

What Sean does is deep clean his clients’ bikes to a level way beyond the usual, and then apply a ceramic protective coating that provides a finish that is better protected from stone chips and fading from the sunlight, and also makes it much easier to keep the bike clean afterwards.

You can read my full story about him on the Kilcullen page of this week's Kildare Nationalist.
