Presenting Five Innovative Ways To Give Your Cycling Components a Second Spin
There are plenty of ways to recreate innovative and useful things out of spare cycling parts. This story will introduce five such ideas where you can easily transform unusable cycling parts into useful objects without spending much money.
Need a bottle opener?
When you take regular care of your drivetrain, you will find the necessity of replacing your chain and cassette to make your bike move seamlessly. Use the unusable chain to create a length that is suitable for the Cog, and then secure it tightly around the Cog. Next, connect three additional links to secure it within the Cog and form an opening edge.
Transform Cog into drink cassettes
Glue a large, thick cork pad to a 28, 30, or 31-tooth base cog. You can use a non-toxic adhesive to repair the Cog with the cork. Furthermore, make sure to clean them by hand and avoid using the dishwasher to prevent rusting.
Easy toilet paper dispenser DIY
Use a crank and fix that to a pre-cut mount. Now drill the wall and hang the set on the hook, keeping an accessible distance from the toilet seat.
DIY coat hanger or towel hooks
By attaching a wooden disc to a saddle and handlebars using the same method as a toilet paper dispenser, you can create a hanger for coats or towels. To prevent snagging, make sure to wrap tape around the handlebars.
Tubes or straps?
If you think your tubes are no longer useful, you can turn them into a strap to secure your U-lock, preventing it from rattling on the handlebars while riding.
