Mechanics Course

Our Mechanics courses are designed for the complete beginner, so no prior experience of tools or bikes are necessary! Ideally you'll work on your own bike, but we have a fleet of bikes for you to work with if need be.

The course will take you through some basic maintenance and how to identify issues with your bike before taking you through changing tyres and puncture repair.

 From there you'll learn how to change your chain, align your gears and brakes and replace consumable parts. Depending on time and class requirements, we'll then cover some more specific tasks relating to the bikes we have in the class, with options such as brake bleeding and wheel truing.  

Cost: This course is fully funded by WCC and by previous participants, so there is no cost in order to attend. If you are able to donate koha towards future courses we'd appreciate it, and suggest a koha of $150 for unwaged and $300 for waged participants, but this will be discussed when the course starts.
