Intermediate cycle mechanics – changing gears

Photo by Caroline Trotter

Delivered by Lang Toun Cycles’ experienced cycle mechanic.

By the end of the session participants will have removed, checked and refitted (or replaced) all the following drivetrain components on their bike:

• Chain
• Cassette/Freewheel
• Derailleurs
• Cranks/Chainrings
• Pedals

Water, Tea and coffee will be available

Ideally you should bring along your own, clean bike and wear sturdy shoes and clothes to the event that you don’t mind getting dirty

Any replacement parts used will be paid for by the participant at the session – this will be agreed with the instructor before parts are fitted.
