Chain waxing
Using
Utrasonic cleaners
We deep clean & dry the cassette, chain, chain rings & the front & rear derailleurs using an ultrasonic cleaner & our non toxic secret herbs & spices. We do this even with new parts. Absolutely no contaminates can be left or the wax will not take
The chain is then submerged in our ultrasnonic cleaner containing our melted wax/teflon mix. The ultrasonic cleaners as the vibration helps the wax solution to penetrate deep within the chain & links
Once the chain is removed it’s hung to allow the wax to cool & dry. Once the wax has returned to a solid state it’s embedded within the individual pieces that make up a bicycle chain. The excess wax is removed frome the outside of the chianlinks leaving just the wax in the links & a waxy feeling to the touch

Would only mention this is a foundational knowledge class. It prioritised teaching a full understanding of the mechanical workings of the bike but I'd been hoping for a bit more doing. Mostly exposition with interludes to experience adjusting the gears and brakes and checking the chain stretch. We watched him change a tire in the last 5 minutes but didn't do it ourselves, and patching a tire isn't covered.
Steve was super knowledgeable and answered everyone's questions along the way. We moved between everyone's bikes looking at different types of brakes and gear sets.
Both Ben & Steve are very friendly, engaging and make everyone feel at ease.
Very relaxed atmosphere and everyone felt comfortable to ask the dumb questions.
Highly recommend for anyone who wants to learn some basic and not some basic mechanical knowledge about bike maintenance and component functionality.
I have no hesitation in recommending this course as a great introduction to maintaining bicycles.

Learnt alot about maintenance and how this will help me going forward.
Basically, for less than the cost of a service, you get your bike checked and learn how to do it yourself!
