Re-Build A Bike

Each semester the Bike Cave will offer a basic training course designed to teach students how to perform basic bicycle maintenance and repair.  The course is hands-on; you will be taught how to disassemble and replace all major components on your bicycle. 

Students may either choose to

1) Bring and build or rebuild their own bicycle over the course of the class
