Bicycle Maintenance & Repair Workshop

Bayside Council is supporting residents who wish to take up cycling as their New Year's resolution by hosting a free, hands-on two-hour Bicycle Maintenance & Repair Workshop.

Date: Saturday, January 11, 2025
Time: 2:00PM - 4:30PM
Location: Arncliffe Youth Centre

What you need to bring: 

• your bike and a rag.

We will show you how to:

• conduct a bicycle safety check
• build your toolkit to care for your bike
• keep your bike clean and lubricated
• take your wheels and tyres on and off
• fix a flat tyre – patch and change an inner tube
• check brake wear and function

If time allows:

• introduction to cable systems – cable maintenance, issues and barrel adjusters
• brake adjustment – pad alignment
• tuning gears – limit adjustments, indexing

This is an open age event (14 is the minimum age). However, children 16 years and under need to be accompanied by a parent or caregiver.

This project is a NSW Environment Protection Authority Waste & Sustainable Materials Strategy initiative, funded from the waste levy.
