You want to fix your bike, but don't know where to start. Don't find yourself helpless at the side of the road! Learn to fix a flat, maintain your chain, tune your brakes and shifters, and spot problems before they can ruin your day. Our popular course, Bike Repair 101: Hands-on Intro to Bike Maintenance, returns this year with multiple dates and locations to choose from. This 3-hour class is a great place to start if you have little or no experience working on bikes and includes:
- cleaning and lubrication,
- how to fix a flat tire,
- basic brake and gearing adjustments, and
- how to spot small problems before they become big problems.
In this hands-on workshop, our most popular class, you will gain confidence and save money by doing simple repairs yourself as well as preventing expensive parts from wearing out. Bring your bicycle so you can learn techniques specific to your components, or you can work on one of EBC's bikes.
Registration is required. These classes fill up quickly, so register early to reserve your spot. Visit http://yeg.bike for a complete list of current courses.
We will also be adding intermediate and advanced bike mechanic courses in the near future.
