Build a Bike From the Frame Up

Overview: Have you ever wanted to build a bike from the frame up? We have two bikes that we're building for Bikes for Refugees, and this is your chance to learn and practise hands-on how to assemble a bike from its individual components. Participants will work in small groups, with guidance from the class organisers, to learn how to install, set up and adjust the following components: • Bottom bracket • Crankset • Headset • Front and rear derailleurs (mechs) • Brakes, including cable installation and adjustment • Gear shifting, including cable installation and adjustment • Chain and cassette, including chain sizing Level: Advanced beginner / intermediate The aim is for everyone to get hands-on experience and build confidence installing and adjusting different parts of a bike. We'll work at the pace of the participants and cover as many of the listed components as possible during the class. Our goal is to have both bikes fully assembled and ready to ride by the end of the second evening - let’s see if we can do it!
