Bike Maintenance Class with EBC (Aberdeen)

It doesn't matter how fit you are or how experienced you might be at biking, your skills will mean little if you don't have the tools and knowledge to maintain your bike and keep those two-wheeled adventures rolling. 

We ran this event last year and it was very popular. You can see the video by clicking here. Those who attended the last event should come along and learn about other aspects of maintenance, there is plenty to learn about bikes! 

Bikes are notoriously complex pieces of equipment, which means that a lot can go wrong. Tires, tubes, chains, shocks, brakes, gears, derailleurs, the list goes on. Luckily, many issues that can arise on a ride are easy to fix if you're properly prepared.

This informal evening with the Shimano-accredited team at Edinburgh Bicycle Co-Operative, will see you getting hands-on with your own bike and we'll teach you the skills needed to carry out basic repairs and also how to inspect your bike so you're prepared for your next adventure. 

We will be providing pizza, beers and juice for the half way mark to keep you fuelled for this member-exclusive night at Edinburgh Bicycle Co-Operative on George Street, Aberdeen. 

You will be split into groups on the night depending on what everyone wants to learn. We will cater for everything from changing a tube and inspecting your bike to bleeding brakes and setting up suspension forks. 

Places are limited due to shop space so tickets are sold on a first-come, first-served basis.
