BIKE MECHANICS CLASSES
The Bike House offers beginner mechanics classes for people who are interested in bikes but haven’t yet taken the plunge into working on them. Our four-week course is designed to build students' confidence and comfort levels working on their own bikes. Our instructors encourage a hands-on approach, limiting our classes to just 10 students to create an intimate environment for learning.
​
The course covers routine bike maintenance and common repairs, including flat tires, cleaning and lubing your chain, changing brake pads, adjusting derailleurs, and truing wheels.
​
During the winter months, we also offer more advanced classes for those interested in a more in-depth experience. Topics include overhauling hubs and bearings, recabling, and wheel truing. These classes build off the introductory classes and provide opportunities for students to fine-tune their skills.
​
Please review the list of upcoming classes below and grab your spot - they fill up fast!
​
We are 100% volunteer run and offer classes when we have volunteers to staff them.
