If you or your staff would like to know more about taking care of the bikes in your workshop, come along and find out from the pros.

11.45am

Wheelbuilding Fundamentals.

2.45pm

Pro tips for workshop efficiency.

Learning to be efficient in the workshop speeds up repair times and reduces the delay in getting the bike back to its proud owner. Cytech trainer Julian Thrasher shows some of the things mechanics can do to increase the accuracy and speed of repairs in a cycle workshop.

Friday 22nd - 3:30pm

If you're still about on the other days of the show, Jules will also be giving a talk on Friday 22nd at 3:30pm.
