Bicycle Home Maintenance Course

This is our 1 day home mechanics course that will give you a comprehensive set of skills for servicing, fixing and upgrading all the bikes in your family.

You bring your own bike (or a family) bike  and you will work on it through the course, giving the bike a service by the end. It can be any bike – a child’s bike, mountain bike, road bike or even a folding bike. You will learn:

1 – Fundamentals and Trail Repairs

• Checking your bike using an M check and determining what needs attention
• What tools you need for your home workshop and out on the trails
• How to adjust your gears and eliminate indexing issues
• Checking and replacing brake blocks
• Checking and replacing tyres and fixing punctures
• Looking after and replacing your chain

2 – Drivetrain

• Replacing cables
• Cassettes
• Freehubs
• Derailleurs
• Bottom brackets
• Cranks, chainrings and pedals

The cost of this 1 day course is normally £120, but we are doing a half term special of £99 for this course.
