Already comfortable working on your bicycle and want to learn more? This introductory class explores the construction and design of the bicycle wheel. We will cover the basics of the most common and strongest three cross lacing. Our experienced instructors will guide you through measuring hubs, rims, and spokes and constructing a true bicycle wheel. All class materials are provided to build a practice wheel.
