Class Description:
This class will be taught by Stephen Plante of
Plante Cycles. This class will be six sessions plus 10hrs of open shop included to give you time to build and finish your frame without rushing. (Note: It is not designed for future professionals though. If you want to go pro, or learn from an absolute master, go to Yamaguchi ($2700), United Bicycle Institute ($2950), or Bohemian in Tuscon ($3100). If you’d like to learn the basics in a fun and affordable environment, come to us.)
Requirements: There are no prerequisites for this class, but it does require patience and ability to work with power tools, open flame, and the desire to do it right (nobody wants a wonky frame that’ll fall apart). 18 or older.
THIS CLASS IS NOT CURRENTLY OFFERED DUE TO COVID-19
