This post is from 2013. For all current classes, please visit our events page. We are now offering hands-on workshops on the first Friday of each month. If you want to learn how to start working on your own bike but don't know where to start, this class is for you! Learn how to fix a flat at home or on the street, keep your brakes and shifters working smoothly & safely, and learn how to prevent and detect small problems that can turn into large problems.

In this 3-hour, hands-on course, you will learn how to 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.
