DIY Repairs

Tools and shop space are available whenever the shop is open on a first-come, first-served basis. This means if it’s busy you may have to wait for someone to finish with a workspace before you can start your own DIY.

We offer a sliding scale for tool use and stand space. $10/hour if you do the work yourself and up to $65/hour if we help out. If you don’t have the money to pay, that’s okay, we’ll work together to determine a fair price.

General used parts are available for use at a cost of $8.50/part.

Bike Repair Workshops

New Hope Community Bikes offers structured, hands on repair nights that cover the basics of bike repair. A three hour session will provide the rider with a better understanding of how a bicycle works, how to fix basic issues and how to name the different parts of the bike. The course runs once a month on a Wednesday night for up to 6 persons. Cost is $35.00 and require advance registration.

Detailed skills include naming of bike parts and how to:

Complete a pre-ride safety check, repair and patch a flat tire, adjust brakes and gears, check for loose bearings, clean and oil a chain and identify parts of the bike.

Ride Smart Cycle Education

Our education programs are designed to develop practical life-long skills through safe cycling. Using the Ontario physical health and education curriculum, our program is engaging and interactive, equipping students with new skills and cycling abilities. Ride Smart skills create safer riders and safer future drivers. The program is based on two reputable sources: CAN-Bike, the national standard for safe cycling programs, and the Guide to Ride curriculum created by Physical and Health Education Canada.
