Bike mechanic Courses

You ride your bicycle every day, but how well do you actually know it? Do you want to show it your devoted love and how to diagnose technical problems on time? Our bike mechanic classes in French and Dutch will give you a better overall understanding of your bike, of how it works, and how to use the right tools. At Het Atelier Participatif we offer the following :

  1. General introduction classes for beginners.
  2. Classes on the maintenance and adjustment of specific bike components for amateurs.
 

To make sure you get into the right workshop, follow this guide:

  • Can you fix a flat tyre on your rear wheel?
  • Do you dare change the brake pads on a friend's bike?
  • Can you list the names of tools in a bicycle workshop?

→ Choose the workshop for advanced!

Did you answer negatively to the above questions?

  • Do you want to learn how to make a diagnostic of your bike?
  • Are you hesitating to sign up for the Advanced or Beginners workshop?
