NEW! Overhaul Bike Class:
Monday, May 6th
Theory is essential, but Experience is a very close second. It is better to see what is "under the hood" to let the parts show us how they do it. The objective of this class is to perform an overhaul on your own bicycle. Tools and techniques will be offered. You are encouraged to bring your own "special tools" if you wish to become more familiar with them. Students will dismantle, clean, and assemble their bicycle--equivalent to a complete overhaul. Students bicycles must remain in the shop for the duration of the sessions. Do not expect to ride the bicycle you are using for this class until its completion. Replacement parts and accessories are not included.
Some places call this class "Build-a-bike". We call ours "Keep-your-bike". This class runs for four (4) weeks on Mondays, from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm. Next class schedule is May 6 through May 27. The class fee is $350.
