Dry or Squeaky Parts

Lubrication Points

Front derailleur
Lube the hinges.


Pedals
If a pedal squeaks, lay the bike on its side and drip lube into the pedal's axle. Leave the bike on its side for a while so the lube can work in. If squeaking persists, replace the pedal.


Rear Derailleur
Lube the hinges and the gear hubs.


Wheel axles, pedal axles, bottom bracket
Have a mechanic grease and replace the bearings every year.
