Come learn the basics of bicycle repair from female mechanics at our workshop designed by and for women.
The second class of every month focuses on brake and gears: Installing, adjusting and tightening derailleur and brake cables. Learn how to fix skipping gears and rubbing brake pads. Classes are free and open to all levels of experience and expertise. There's no need to do the classes in order, or go to the beginner's class before any others. As always, people can use the tools to repair their own bikes, though they cannot expect guidance for the mechanics. People who want to work on their own bikes and need the help of a mechanic should come to the Open Workshop every Thursday nite.Workshop may last shorter than 2 hours.
