If you are the proud owner of an Indian roadster bicycle, then you must realise that there are very little resources on the Internet which explain how to repair or restore these beasts of burden. In fact, if you type the search query “Indian Bicycles” in Google, you will get tons of useless links pointing to trade websites and nothing useful. Of course if you are living in India, you need not be bothered by this because every street corner has a bicycle repair shop which specializes in repairing these bikes. But if you are looking to repair your bicycle yourself, then you need some hand holding.

Recently, I stumbled upon an indepth, visually apealing article on bicycle restoration which explained how to restore a Hercules roadster bicycle. I found this article very useful in learning to repair my Indian bicycle.
