Intro to Bike Maintenance

This session is about de-mystifying, jargon-busting, and getting you through the first steps of knowing how your bike ticks. You’ll leave feeling happier about cycling on your own, confident you can understand and handle any issues that come up.

Price from £12 per person, depending on group size

Online or face-to-face, 1:1 or groups of up to 20 people

People keep telling me ‘I really should learn more about bike maintenance…’ and I believe that one of the biggest barriers is not knowing where to start. Do I book a bike shop course? Which online videos are reliable? Can I even do that myself??
This is where you start.

We'll be covering:

  • Understanding the main bike parts of your bike and how everything works

  • Essential bike care, cleaning and maintenance

  • Safety checks and identifying when your bike has a problem

  • Wheel and tyre removal for puncture repair

You’ll leave the workshop feeling confident about keeping your bike running well and where to go next with your learning. Groups are kept small, and even the online version of this session is very hands-on, please invite your bike to join us on the call!
