HomeBike Maintenance

At SMBC's Bicycle Maintenance Workshop we'll show you: 

  • What to check before every ride
  • What you should always carry
  • How to fix a flat tire (either tube or tubeless tires)
  • Pros and cons of tubeless tires
  • The optimum tire pressure for your bike
  • Proper chain care and maintenance
  • How to extend the life of your drivetrain
  • How to clean and adjust your brakes (rim or disc)
  • How to eliminate loud brake noise
  • How to adjust both your front and rear derailleurs
  • Plus, lots more biking tips!
We encourage you to bring your bike if you would like to learn how to remove a wheel, fix a flat tire on your bike, have your chain checked for wear, learn to make an adjustment or would like a specific question answered.

These sessions fill quickly, so register promptly when new workshops are announced.
