    - - Unlubricated gears may get stuck if the cyclist changes gears while crossing the road.
        
        This would distract him and cause him to become unsteady on his bike
    - - Low tyre pressure increases the breaking distance due to bad inflation
    - - Light may not have been turned on or were not working which decreases visibility of the cyclists to road users
    - - If worn it affects the travel of the hand brake leaver
  - - - This will provide a clearer direction for the investigation
