Rear Derailleur Adjustment
Do you ever wonder how to best take care of your drive train? Find yourself out on the trail with bad shifting? Well, we got you! In this class we will be covering all the elements of proper shifting: derailleur limits, cable tension, hanger alignment and chain stretch.
Disc Brake Adjustment
Have you ever put your bike in the car without a front wheel and accidentally pulled the brake? You'll know how much of a pain it is to try to get those pistons unstuck! Take this class and we'll teach you how to push those pistons back safely, as well as change the pads and adjust the caliper.
Tubeless Set-Up
Tubeless set up may seem relatively simple. But let us tell you, there are quite a few steps from the beginning to the end! We will teach you how to tape a rim, add sealant, set the bead and troubleshoot air leaks. These are crucial skills to have for everyone who runs a tubeless setup.
Professionally Wrap your Handlebars
Anyone can wrap tape around a handlebar, but not everyone can make it look like a factory race bike! We'll go over a variety of taping techniques from cheater strips to figure-eights, and show you how to make your finishing tape look like the bikes in the World Tour.
Pre & Post Bike Check
Have you ever gone on a bike ride and thought, 'huh, my bike isn't riding how it should'? Well our staff has too. We're all human and sometimes we forget to check the little things. Bolt and axle checks are great to do pre and post ride. Perhaps that crazy rattle would not have happened if you had checked! We will be going over the essentials of bike check before and after riding. Don't let forgetting to check your bike over end up ruining your ride!
