please dib & PM. Can collect central London. Can be posted if you pay postage.

Good on you girl, I too am female and fix/build other people's bikes at home.

But I am a qualified L2 mechanic. I did the course with the aforementioned Cycle Systems Academy, they are an excellent training provider and always has some fundings / apprenticeship offers.

Personally I do this on the side for some extra cash to supplement day job. As I belong to several tri / running / swimming clubs and a tri squad, all my clients are club mates. I only do road / TT bikes and due to speciality tools, I don't do headset fittings or frame repairs. In saying that, most people only wants their gears tuned, brake pads changed, with the odd cassette / chain / BB installed. I offer a basic service for £30 with a one hour turn around which seems to be mighty popular in the summer when all the bike shops have a waiting list.

It would be harder to persuade strangers to hand over their bikes if you don't have a qualifications to prove your ability, but then a lot of people don't want to shell out 20 quid (a la Evans) to fit a pair of tyres, so why not give them a hand?
I think if you be specific with what you can offer (to only things you're confident with) and undercut others by a lot, it's a great money spinner. Outside of this forum, too many people can't even fix a puncture.

PS insurance is quite important, or you get people to sign liability waiver

Good luck with your business.

is it still available? pics?

what size is the frame?

hey, got a pair 23C gatorskins folding tyres. a
couple hundred miles, but still in good condition lots of life left.
£25 posted

As title, after a pair of these, don't mind if both same size or one of each. Thought I'd try here before splashing on brand new, used is fine, just not fixei skidded...

Would need posting.

Much obliged.

Can't keep it for that long, cos housemates will go mad!

Collect by Green park station, otherwise will have to put it in the recycling bin.
