Basic Maintenance Class $36

This one-time, 3-hour course is designed to educate you on basic maintenance of bicycles in general and to help you get to know your own bicycle specifically. This course will help you learn how your bicycle works and what actions you can take in order to prolong the life of your bicycle, as well as what to check for when your bicycle is not functioning properly.

Topics Covered:

  • Specifics of your bike
  • Regular maintenance techniques
  • Fix a flat
  • Adjusting brakes and shifters
  • Diagnosing problems
  • Safety Checks

*Please note: Students should bring their own bicycle to this class. Bike must be in general working condition. This workshop is designed for standard modern and vintage bikes with rim brakes, multiple gears and tires with tubes, but works well for BMX and cruiser style bicycles.   If your bike has tubeless tires and hydraulic disk brakes – check out our Modern MTB technology and maintenance class

COVID-19 Information

With careful thought and planning we are structuring our classes and programs following CDC considerations to protect students, families, and our community.  As caseloads in Pima County rise and fall, these requirements are subject to change. 

Current precautions at BICAS: 

  • Requiring that staff and students wear a mask that covers their face and nose at all times indoors.  Snack breaks will happen outdoors in open air with physical distancing.

We ask that you help us protect the health of participants and staff. Anyone who is sick or was sick with COVID-19 or recently in contact with someone with COVID-19 in the last 5 days— including staff, students, and families— should not come to class. Be on the lookout for symptoms of COVID-19, which include fever, cough, shortness of breath, chills, muscle pain, sore throat, and loss of taste or smell. Call your doctor if you think you or a family member is sick.
