Bike Oven Tech Training: Bottom Brackets Are Up

Bike Oven Tech Training

Monday and Wednesday nights at the Bike Oven are Bike Oven Tech Training (B.O.T.T.) nights. We teach each other bike repair and destruction, we take care of our shop, and work on our own bikes. We relax our normal shop rules, order a couple of pizzas, and generally have a “Good Time” ™.

This week, we’re going to focus on training people on the post-modern analysis of bottom brackets. We’ll also be sorting through an insane variety of low-end bike part, and doing a bunch of other work on bikes in the shop - breaking them down, and hopefully building a few back up.

The shop is open from 7 p.m. until 10 p.m, but we’ll be closed to the public. Bike Oven volunteers only. If you’re interested in becoming a “volunteer” at the Bike Oven, email at us at info@bikeoven.com or just stop in to hang out and lend a hand.

This week, we’re going to focus on training people on the proper use (and abuse) of chain tools. Last week, Harv held a class on chains and chain tools - and this week we’ll be going over that stuff, and doing a bunch of other work on bikes in the shop - breaking them down, and hopefully building a few back up.

The shop is open from 7 p.m. until 10 p.m, but we’ll be closed to the public. Bike Oven volunteers only. If you’re interested in becoming a “volunteer” at the Bike Oven, email at us at info@bikeoven.com or just stop in to hang out and lend a hand.

Bike Oven Tech Training

Wednesday nights at the Bike Oven are now Bike Oven Tech Training (B.O.T.T.) nights. We’ll be training each other in bike repair and destruction, taking care of our shop, and working on our own bikes. We relax our normal shop rules, order a couple of pizzas, and generally have a “Good Time” ™.

This is a chance for our volunteers to work on their own bikes in the shop. We also work on random bikes in the shop - tearing them down, building them up, and organizing them.

This week, we’re going to focus on getting a few road bikes we’ve had in the shop for a while read to ride. We’re also going to try and clean out the loft area in the back of the shop (this promises to be interesting).

The shop is open from 7 p.m. until 10 p.m, but we’ll be closed to the public. Bike Oven volunteers only. If you’re interested in becoming a “volunteer” at the Bike Oven, shoot an email at us at info@bikeoven.com or just stop in to hang out and lend a hand.
