Description
Free drop-in Dr Bike session for all students and staff. Our mechanic Ross will be able to carry out a check up and do simple repairs on your bike, particularly on brakes, gears and punctures (with a charge for the parts but not for the labour). Cash or card accepted.
Ross is also a great source of advice, so bring any questions you might have about bike maintenance, cycle safety and more. No need to book but the earlier you come, the more likely your bike will get dealt with. If you need a larger repair done, come along and book an appointment for another time.
If you would like regular notice of free bike repair sessions and other bike related activities for students and staff at UWE Bristol, email transport.services@uwe.ac.uk to be added to our Bike User Group email list.
