3 hrs, $30, 6 participants max.

Bearing Adjustment: Review (from basic class) of how to identify need for adjustment. How to adjust, how to identify need for overhaul (but not how to). Demonstration and hands-on.

Spoke Replacement and Wheel Truing: Very basic introduction to minor wheel truing and how to replace a spoke (barring other damage). Demonstration only.

Chain wear check and how to identify need for replacement of drive train (chain/cogs/chainring/pulleys), sizing of chain, lubrication. Demonstration (with hands-on if time permits).

The instructors are qualified professionals. The class outline is structured and focused to cover as much as possible in a relatively short amount of time. As a beginner to bike repair, we expect you will learn a lot and come away feeling much more comfortable with the workings of your machine. It is also an ideal refresher for someone who has taken a class in the past, or has some limited, but spotty experience. You will almost certainly learn some new techniques and tricks.

Intermediate Workshops 1 and 2 do not have to be taken together or in order.

Please bring your bike if possible.
