COME TO THE BROMMIE CLINIC! NEXT class date TBA
check back or join our email list to stay informed trophy bikes university city 3131 Walnut St. (FREE, but spaces limited, please rsvp to mcget@aol.com!) WHAT HAPPENS AT THE BROMMIE CLINIC?
It's quite simple....1) Bring your Brompton folder. 2) Have some coffee and scones. 3) Learn to perform some simple maintenance tasks that can add years to your B's life. This easy-paced class covers flat repair (including getting that back wheel on and off!), gear & brake adjustment, chain cleaning & lubing--and more. Dress casual--this is a hands-on class. We try hard to offer a good clinic--here's a recent review:
"... In spite of owning Bromptons for 7 years, Ilearned a lot about the Brompton's mechanical characteristics from watching your technique and listening to your entertaining insights; being in the presence of an expert has no substitute. The camaraderie and sharing of information that surfaced during the class was an unexpected bonus. ...I encourage anyone interested in Mike's next class to take full advantage of his expertise... It was certainly worth my while to make the trip yesterday from NYC..." --A.W., New York. |
