Maintenance classes
NEXT CLASSES SUNDAY 2ND JUNE.
To book, please phone 0131 668 1996 (Monday - Thursday, 10am - 5pm) or email info@thebikestation.org.uk.
Each 2 hour session will cost £28 per person. There are three different sessions available, each covering different aspects of basic maintenance. Places are limited to 6 per class. Payment will be required at time of booking to secure your place on the course.
You'll need to bring your own bike - that way, you'll learn how to fix YOUR bike. If you don't have a bike, that's not a problem, just let us know and we will sort something out. Also - if you have a specialist bike (Brompton, disk brakes...) please let us know when booking.
