BIPOC Exclusive Women's Mechanics Class

Please note: this event is exclusively a BIPOC event. Any woman, femme or non-binary person that identifies as Black, Indigenous, or a person of color is welcome to attend.

¡También tendremos un grupo en español si prefieres que te enseñen en español!

This mechanics class is an opportunity for cyclists to gather and learn basic bike maintenance skills - both road and mountain, whichever you prefer! We will break up into small groups of 3-5 so that everyone can get hands on experience with their bikes. Please know that this class is for all levels of riders. Whether you’ve never changed a tire or want to learn more about derailleur adjustments, we got you covered!

Class cost is $10. We'll have pizza, drinks and a raffle with love from our sponsors! Scholarships are available if you need it. Reach out to womensrides@comba.org for details. 

WHAT WE'LL COVER:

> basics - how to care for and clean your bike

> derailleur adjustments - cable tension, b tension, limit screws

> wheels - rims, spokes, sealant, tires, tubes, plugs

> suspension - set up, pressure, sag, rebound, service

> brakes - rotors, pads, fluid, pistons

WHAT TO BRING:

> Something to take notes

> If you want to wrench, don't wear your nicest clothes.

> Bikes: Please feel free to bring your own bike if you want to work on it. If you don't mind that your bike is the one being demonstrated/worked on, then don't bother bringing it - we will have demo bikes to use. This class is not intended to fix your bike, but rather give you the skills and empowerment to fix it on your own, so please leave your specific parts and technical repairs at home.
