Learn the elusive art of truing wheels. Truing is being able to straighten or take the wobble out of wheels by tensioning spokes. Bring your bike to true it's wheels, or learn and practice on some of the many "project bikes" around the WTB shop. Space is limited to six participants, so secure your spot with a RSVP.

Notice: West Town Bikes can not assure the quality of student work or truabilty of participants wheels. Well made wheels from quality materials make wheels more easy to true as well as higher performing. Alloy rims and stainless steel spokes are a sign of quality wheels. Steel rimmed wheels with rusty spokes make for a great challenge to true at all!
