At 1226 BIKES we understand that not everyone who rides a bike wants to be a pro bike mechanic. Some people just want to ride their bikes. Great! But a little bit of knowledge goes a long way… It never hurts to know how to fix your gears when they’re not shifting properly… Can be really useful halfway up a hill you’re trying to climb a hill! Or maybe it’s a puncture that got you and you just need to get the wheel off, change the tube and put it back on without the brakes rubbing or the shifting going out for the rest of the ride.
We’re here to help! Whether you just ride to the local shops or you’re a mum servicing the home fleet of kids commuters, a bike-packer needing to know how to fix hiccups on the trail, or a competent mechanic looking to expand your skills into bike building; we’ve got you covered. We are the best at training home bicycle mechanics!
We offer a range of courses from beginner to advanced to keep you and your bike(s) rolling. Our three-hour tuning and maintenance course is a bite-sized chunk of knowledge gold with an emphasis on gear and brake tuning. You’ll also learn a heavy sprinkling of other areas of the bike. Exactly which areas are decided by the group on the day. Yep, you bring your bike and we all decide what to work on. It’s really cool and specifically designed to give you a firm grasp on the basics of tuning and maintaining your own bike.
