1st Bicycle Workshop.
The best way to keep your bicycle running smoothly, is to get to know it a little better. We'd like to share with you a few handy tips that will help you perform basic routine maintenance and diagnose mechanical problems before they become costly repairs.
Our first bicycle workshop will be running on 6th October and will cover the mechanics, safety devices and the 'things that wear out'. Titled 'Pushbikes 101', this is a general overview of what makes a bike go, how to keep it going, and what can make it stop.
Huw Vellacott, principle mechanic, will be hosting the event, which will cover topics such as:
- The basics of how a bike works
- Routine maintenance
- Basic adjustment of gears and brakes
- Puncture repair
- How to diagnose the start of major mechanical problems
Light refreshments will be served. We encourage you to bring your bike in too, we might be able to use it for a demonstration!
We will be running workshops throughout the year for people of various skill levels, so if this one's not your cup of tea, stay tuned.
