Basic Bicycle Maintenance – August 2024

Learn at home caregiving tasks to keep your bicycle in tip top shape. Receive praise from the bike shop for keeping your bike in good order! Find out why it’s important to shift gears properly, what inflation to use for your tires, how (and why) to clean a chain, and more.
Want to keep your bike on the road and out of the shop? Come learn how just a few maintenance tasks will keep your bike going longer.
Bike Fun is hosting a Basic Bicycle Maintenance class. We will cover the basics of home bicycle maintenance, as well as provide time to answer questions you may have about bicycle maintenance. If you have a bicycle and bring it, we’ll also fill out your very own Bicycle Information Sheet.
Registration for the class is here. Suggested ticket price is sliding scale between $25-35. 
We will be inside working on our bicycles.
This course is for anyone 13 and up who wants to learn more about taking good care of a bicycle. It will cover the following topics:

How to fix a flat
How to properly inflate your tires
How to clean a chain and diagnose chain wear; and
What each part of your bike is.
