Bike Mechanics Course Testimonials
“Lewis guided us through a hands-on, one-day bike repair course, designed to provide the knowledge and skills (and tool recommendations) to carry out most foreseeable trail-side or road-side breakdowns.
Lewis is a great tutor: vastly experienced, highly skilled, knowledgeable, organized, respectful and fun. The day was well structured, informative and enjoyable and I left feeling confident in my new skills. The inner tube and broken derailleur hacks are awesome!
Very highly recommended.”

“I just completed the one day trail bike mechanic course and it was fantastic! I wanted to feel more confident about planning a multi day bike ride and also more generally about how to deal with things at the side of the trail to get myself home. Lewis was really patient, explained things well and tailored the course perfectly for our group. He had lots of advice about what tools and spares to take and we also got plenty of hands on practice. Thank you!”
“I completed the one day bike mechanic course on Monday, it was excellent.
Lewis explained everything clearly and made the course very hands on.
In just one day I learned how to replace & align brake pads, adjust a derailleur, repair a broken chain, plug a tubeless Tyre.
I’d highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to learn essential bike maintenance skills, whether you’re a beginner or just looking to build your confidence.
