Roadside Emergency Repairs

Don’t you just hate it when you finally manage to get out on the bike after a long week and mid way through the ride in the middle of nowhere the chain snaps or your gear cable breaks!

Yeah we do too.

We’ve all been there.

Thats why we’re hosting a morning of trailside emergency repairs to help teach you how to solve common issues and how to minimize problems from occuring while out on the trail.

Join our experienced mechanics with hands-on teaching, sharing tips and tricks to help you get out of sticky situations without needing to make the dreaded ‘come pick me up’ phone call.

Whether you are a seasoned pro or just started to get out we are sure you’ll learn something of value.

This event is for Road or Commuter bikes. For MTB or Gravel bikes join our Trailside Emergency Repairs event here.

Here are some of the topics we will be covering

  • Punctures - Tube and tubeless

  • Chains - Jammed up and snapped

  • Snapped cables and bent mech hangers

  • Small crash or bike has fallen over checks

  • Pre-ride basic checks before you set off

  • Post-ride bike care

We are imited to 10 spaces only and expect to fill these quickly so make sure you grab yourself a ticket below.

The event is £FREE, however we are collecting donations for Stu’s upcoming Velindre charity ride.
