AdvancedMaintenance

This comprehensive 4-week course will focus on a significant aspect of what makes the bicycle function at its best. Participants will gain a practical level of knowledge and mechanical skills, not to mention some dirty hands! Topics covered include:

  • Wheels, including cassette/freewheel
  • Bearings, including headsets and bottom brackets
  • Brakes, including brake pads, cables and housing

Classes will be held for four consecutive Wednesdays in November, January, February and March. Each class runs from 7:00 to 9:30 pm. The cost of the entire course is $400, which includes a copy of Park Tool’s Big Blue Book of Repair which is yours to keep. Classes are on hold this year but we will offer classes again in November 2019.
