Course costs are $315 normal registration, or $262.50 for Students/Low income. It includes a month of shop use from the beginning of the course, 30 hours of instruction, and a copy of a Park Tools repair manual. The course will be a series of workshops held in our shop, focusing on:
Flat repair
Wheel truing
Tool usage, torque
Mechanical disk and rim brake adjustment
Drive-train adjustments, installations
Bearing overhauls
Drive-train cleaning
On-ride repairs
…and more!
Two areas we do not cover in-depth are:
Hydraulic disk/rim brakes
Suspension
This is due to the fact we rarely are asked to service these items in our shop, and aren’t set up do so.
