This 6-week series will cover everything you need to know to keep your bike tuned up. You will learn to overhaul bottom brackets, headsets and hubs, true wheels, adjust brakes, replace brake pads and cables, and adjust shifters and derailleurs. West Town Bikes will provide the workstands and tools. Cables, housing, bearings and grerase will be provided. Participants must provide their own project bikes, and any other replacement parts needed, which should be purchased before-hand at your local bike shop. Storage space will not be provided--you must take your bike with you at the end of each class (the bike will be rideable after each session).

Participants must contact instructor Steve Marasala at smarsa1@hotmail.com to arrange registration for this class. This class is limited to eight participants. Enrollment is secured with payment to the instructor. Suggested base donation for this class is $120 (or more, additional donations go to supporting community programs at WTB). Checks may be made out to West Town Bikes and delivered to the instructor, dropped off at the shop or sent to;
