ABOUT

Have you always wanted to learn how to fix a puncture on the go? What about, how to stop that chain grinding or how to set your gears properly? Join our upcoming Bike Garage workshop and be empowered through hands-on bicycle learning in a friendly, informal atmosphere. 

BIKE FIX 101 (in-depth flat fix, chain + bike care)
For cyclists who want to be more self-sufficient while out on the road (or the trail). Learn to fix your bike in any situation where you might be and how to keep it tuned. Open to all and designed for beginners and those who want to know more about basic bicycle maintenance. Led by the talented mechanics of Woodstock Cycleworks and the Bicycle CPT crew.

Here are some of the things that we’ll explore at the workshop:  
  • Fixing a Flat – How to change an inner tube following a puncture (front and rear wheel) – including how to repair damaged tubes and prevent your next flat!
  • Bike terms, components and tools guide.
  • How to conduct a pre-ride bike safety check.
  • Cleaning and lubing your chain to prevent wear & tear and encourage a smoother ride.

The workshop will be kept small +-10 (low student-to-teacher ratio) with an emphasis on hands-on learning. You will have a chance to work on and ask questions about your bicycle in a relaxed and fun learning environment. Please see our website for the full programme and what you need to bring along to the workshop.
