Bike Maintenance 101

  • Flowstate Bike Works 5790 Packard Lane NE Bainbridge Island, WA 98110 United States (map)

Registration opens in December. Class dates will go up here first. Want a heads-up when they do?

Two hours in the shop, working on your own bike. You'll leave knowing how to keep it clean, shifting and stopping between services. No experience needed. I show it once on a shop bike, then you do it on yours.

$65, take-home kit included. 6 riders max. Weekday evenings, 6:30–8:30pm.

What we'll cover

  • Washing your bike without pushing water into the bearings

  • Cleaning your suspension stanchions and seals, and when it's due for service

  • Cleaning, lubing and checking your chain for wear

  • Adjusting a mechanical derailleur

  • Changing brake pads and bedding them in

  • Changing a tire, tubes and tubeless, and fixing a flat on the trail

  • A two-minute pre-ride check

  • What to carry in your pack

What to bring

  • Your bike, as dirty as it is

  • Clothes you don't mind getting greasy

  • A spare tube, if your bike runs tubes
