Come join our Bike-DIY Session and fix your own bike!
How to book
When you book your ticket on Eventbrite, please fill out this form below so we will know what time you intend to arrive and what needs to be done to your bike.
Form link here �https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSemOstQfc3nT57zTvvmJBsom5TWGUFnoB-cF7CDefsKHeUTOg/viewform?usp=sf_link
This helps us gauge how much time your bike may take to fix and how many volunteers we will need.
If you have any queries, or would like to give us more information, please drop us a quick email: [email protected]
Details
Join us on Thursday evenings (17:00-20:00) for a Bike-DIY session, and fix your own bike!
£6 per hour for the use of a stable bike stand, in a warm, dry, well-lit space.
Wee Spoke Hub tools are available for your use. Also spare parts, and mechanical assistance by competent volunteers, backed up by a workshop mechanic.
Instructions
Wear old clothes - if you're lucky, you'll get them greasy. If you forget, we do have aprons, and a few old shirts. Also extremely fashionable lab coats!
If you have another appointment later in the evening (i.e. a deadline), please let us know about this when you sign in. Things take longer than you think.
After signing in, you will be matched with a volunteer. We'll discuss your repair needs, the available time, and try to gauge your mechanical comfort zone.
Then get your hands dirty. �
Practical limitations
Bike-DIY depends on our selfless volunteers. If there is no spare volunteer available when you arrive, please be patient.
Some advanced repairs are not practical during Bike-DIY.
So before you lug over your full-bounce chipped e-bike with the pure mad shockies and the CD waterbrakes for a full electric afterburner overhaul - please drop us an email to see if that's possible. �
