Dirt and grime doesn't just coat your external components, it also makes its way into your internal components causing wear to your bearings. Learn how to take apart, inspect and clean your headset and bottom bracket.
In one class session we will cover the following topics:
Identifying poorly adjusted bearings
Disassembly, inspection and re-assembly of the headset and bottom bracket
Removal and Installation of cranks
The class takes place over one day:
Monday March 4th, from 6:00PM to 9:00PM
No previous bike knowledge is required or expected, but a willingness to learn and have fun is a must!
The class will be hands-on, so bring a bike and get ready to get greasy. If you don't have a bike you want to rebuild, we have bikes that you can work on.
Food is not provided for our classes, but you are welcome to bring snacks.
The fee for this class is a sliding scale: $25-40 for Bike Kitchen members or $75-90 for non-members. Enrolling in the class as a non-member also buys you a year-long membership at the Bike Kitchen. Class size is limited to six. If you do not currently have a membership you MUST select a ticket price that has "Non-Member" in the description.
Refund Policy: we offer refunds up to 96 hours before the start of the class. Cancellation after that point involves forfeiting the class payment. If you are unable to attend a paid class, your new membership is still valid and you are welcome to visit us during regular shop hours and speak to our staff mechanics.
