Learn to fix it from a book
If you can’t make it to one of our courses, but still want to try some home maintenance, have a look at the Basic Bicycle Maintenance Manual provided free from the London Cyclist.
You can also find out how to carry out an 11-step M-check of your bike on this Sustrans page, or watch the video.
Other cycle maintenance workshops
Some local borough cycling groups run cycle maintenance workshops. These are often volunteer-led, and can offer you advice and help to maintain your own cycle:
- Cycle Islington sometimes run maintenance workshops
- Hackney Bike Workshop (three evenings a month)
- Kentish Town Bike Workshop (first Monday of the month)
Note: The three courses listed above are not run by or affiliated to Islington Council
