You are encouraged to bring your own bike to learn and work on!

Brakes - diagnose what adjustments your brakes need and learn to make the adjustments

Chain/Cassette - learn to make the adjustments to help your chain move smoothly and quietly across the cassette and chainrings

This class is provided to the public for free with funding from 2016 Measure B courtesy of VTA . While free to participants, it costs about $150/person signed up to conduct this course so if you signup make sure you show up -- otherwise this taxpayer money is wasted and cannot be recovered.

We also have a waitlist enabled for this course.
