Wenches with Wrenches is an ongoing program of CBN volunteers hosting bicycle repair workshops run by and for women in downtown Toronto. The idea has been to make basic bicycle repair skills accessible to women, in the hope that participants will then share their knowledge and their confidence with others in the community

Wenches with Wrenches brings women together in a safe, non-competitive and friendly learning environment. The workshops are run by women for women because, many times, women are just more comfortable learning from other women.

The Ball Bearings class is taken best with a previous dose of WwW: we recommend that you have some repair experience or have taken the basic Wenches with Wrenches courses.

In this two hour class, we will discuss the concept of the bike's ball bearing systems, which are pivotal to keeping the steering, pedalling, and wheels moving smoothly.

There will be a demonstration of repacking one bearing system.
However, due to numbers and time constraints it is unlikely that we will have time for everyone to do a hands-on repack.

The price for this class is $15, and pre-payment is necessary when you register in order to hold your place in the class. Cash payment is preferred, however we are now able to accept payment via Paypal (use the Donate option on the sidebar). It is not necessary to have a Paypal account in order to use this option.
