This course is 8 sessions beginning Thursday March 30th and meets once a week every Thursday from 7pm-10.

Gain a comprehensive overview of bicycle mechanics in this 8 week Build-A-Bike course. We cover overhauling and adjusting bottom brackets, headsets and hubs, wheel truing, brake, shifter and derailleur adjustment and any other finishing work, detail and trouble shooting. There are many options for project bikes. You can use your own, borrow one from us or get something that needs a complete overhaul. Participants can get a lot of value out of the class by fixing up a bike of their own or a friends. The minimum donation for the class is equal or less then it would cost to have a shop perform the work.

Contact Michael Young (michael@westtownbikes.org or 312-656-1953) to register. The suggested minimum donation is $200 and payment arrangements can be made.
