Bike Maintenance Level 2

Level 2 Bike Maintenance focuses on replacing and servicing consumable components, like chains and cables. These are items which will inevitably wear over time, or which you may need to change as part of a regular service.

This one-day course covers:

  • fitting cable housing
  • replacing gear and brake cables
  • changing bar tape and grips
  • chain splitting and replacement
  • removing and changing cassettes and freewheels
  • replacing pedals
  • adjusting front dérailleurs

This course builds on Level 1 Bike Maintenance and assumes a proficiency in adjusting gears and brakes. Please call 029 2061 6783 if you would like more details.

Please note, trainees will use our demonstration bikes for this course.

I’d just like to say a massive ‘Thank You’ to the boys and girls at Cardiff Cycle workshop. They’ve done absolute wonders for my bike over the years! It’s was an old heavy Peugeot which I bought from new in about 1990. Although I used it regularly, it was getting too heavy for me, so the team changed the wheels for ones that were much lighter; put some super duper tyres on them, and on top of that, replaced the old hard saddle for a brand new very comfortable one. I make sure that I get my bike serviced regularly with them too. Such a friendly bunch too-always time for a chat. There is nothing they don’t know about bikes. Highly recommended!

The tutors are very patient and teach in a way that is easily understood.

“Sustainability has worked with CTW successfully for a number of years, with sessions every month on Campus. They provide bike servicing for staff, students and the local community as part of our free Repair Café events. It’s a service to all to promote sustainable cycle travelling to Campus and the benefits of repair. They are so knowledgeable and as well as fixing on site they provide great friendly honest advice.”

“Fab loved both Level 1 and 2 courses. I have come away feeling confident I can fix my bike. Thank you guys”

Cath Rowlands

Just had a great experience from the team at Cardiff Cycle Workshop. They always do a thorough job but recently went above and beyond on my Specialized gravel bike. It had a very specific, proprietary headset that was difficult to maintain. But with perseverance the bike now works flawlessly! Highly recommended.

Rhydian Yeoman

Supportive, relaxed atmosphere. Very organised, clean workshop. Clear explanations with plenty of humour, excellent!

Jo Absom

Very supportive and non judgemental tutor, also the venue is really easy by public transport or bike!

Claire Taylor-Shepherd

“Came away a lot more confident with attempting to build a wheel. The course was run in a relaxed manner and no question was too much for Jon to answer. Look forward to my next course.”

Gordon Broomfield

“Excellent quality and speed of service, very well priced too. Top notch.”

Chris Shorrock

I had an amazing time here! Russ and Andy were super helpful, I was able to test out multiple bikes and get all the expert advice I needed to be sure in my choice. They were very kind and welcoming! I would definitely recommend getting a bike here!!

“Great place to go to get yourself a bike. No need to spend hundreds just get one second hand. Good communication, they even adjust the seat and handlebars to suit your height etc. My partner is very pleased with her bike and it looks brand new! Highly recommended.”

Jake Doherty

Very detailed and immersive. Excellent, friendly delivery by the tutor.

Vietonia Agovav

Cannot recommend this place highly enough. Great to see people who take real pride in what they do. Pricing is very fair and turn around is efficient.

Tom Griffiths

Just brilliant! First time using this brilliant place and I love everything about it. Popped my son’s bike down to look at the brakes and fixed it within seconds. I’ll definitely be heading taking all our bikes there for repair and services. Guys were all super helpful and lovely. What a find!!

Everything was explained in a manner so we could all understand, regardless of experience. 

Excellent range of tools and bikes for testing.

“We visited today and picked a bike for my 6 year-old. He got to try it out and you fixed the brakes as they were a bit squeaky! Very covid safe! Excellent bike and my boy loves it. Great it has a 3-month warranty too!”
