About this Event
In this workshop, we will look in more detail at some of the more common problems you might encounter with your bike and how to fix them at home or whilst out on a ride.
Please note: this workshop is open to self-identifying women only.
If you need to learn how to change an inner tube and fix a puncture, please book on our Puncture Repair Workshop as we won’t cover punctures in this session.
Together we will cover:
- Brakes – troubleshooting “spongy”, sticking and noisy brakes, emergency fixes
- Gears – troubleshooting skipping gears
- Chains – noisy chains, when a chain needs replacing and demo of what to do if it snaps on a ride
- What to do if a spoke snaps
- What tools you need to carry with you on a ride for maximum preparedness but minimum weight!
You will need:
- Your bike (or you can work on one of ours)
- Your own refreshments
- Comfortable warm clothing you don’t mind getting mucky (we don’t have heating!)
