October is here—the air is crisp, the leaves are falling, and the Halloween spirit is creeping in. But there’s something scarier than ghosts and goblins that cyclists face this season: rust. If left unchecked, rust can turn your folding bike into a real horror story.
Luckily, you don’t need garlic, silver bullets, or a séance to keep your ZiZZO folding bike safe. With a few simple steps, you can keep the rust monsters away and enjoy spooky-season rides without fear.
1. Wipe Away the Wicked Water 👻
Moisture is like a curse for your bike. After every ride—especially when the roads are damp—grab a dry cloth and wipe down your ZiZZO. Frame, rims, chain, and folding joints all need a quick sweep.
2. A Potion for the Chain 🧪
Your chain is the lifeblood of your bike. Without care, it can look like something straight out of a graveyard. Use a wet-weather chain lubricant this fall to protect against moisture. Apply it often, but don’t overdo it—wipe away the extra so it doesn’t attract dirt like a trickster goblin.
3. Keep the Bike Out of the Graveyard
One of the best parts of owning a ZiZZO folding bike? It folds small enough to stash almost anywhere. This fall, don’t leave it outside where rain and frost can turn it into a rusted relic. Bring it indoors—whether that’s a garage, closet, or even under your desk. If you must store it outside, use a waterproof cover—think of it as a protective cloak against the elements.
4. Guard the Joints Like a Castle Gate
Your folding latches and hinges are magical portals that make your ZiZZO unique. To keep them from seizing up like a rusty suit of armor, give them a light coat of lube or rust-preventive spray a couple of times a month. That way, your folding mechanism stays smooth instead of turning into a Halloween jump scare.
Ride Into the Night (Without Fear of Rust)
Fall rides are all about cool air, golden leaves, and maybe even a costume or two. Don’t let rust be the monster under your bed this season. With a little care—wiping down, proper lubrication, smart storage, and hinge protection—your ZiZZO folding bike will stay rust-free and ready for every autumn adventure.
So this October, keep the thrills on your ride and the chills away from your bike. Because the only thing scarier than rust is running out of candy on Halloween night.
