Aodhan Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 If it is a bicycle, look in your library. There should be at least 2 or 3 there. If you can find it, see if that have one of these:"Bicycle Magazines basic maintenance and repair""Big blue book of bicycle repair"If not the library, a good used bookstore will have some that might be older, but would still give you the basics.Really, there are only two tricky things in bicycle repair: Repacking a hub/headset/crankset, and lacing/truing wheels. Everything else is just a matter of threading, tightening and adjusting.Aodhan There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.-Douglas Everett, American hockey player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran-Lilith Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Hmmm...first job, I'm guessing? I would go and learn tool names that are involved in bicycle repair, and I would make sure I had an idea of what all those tools do.If you don't know how to use a tool, ask. If you don't know what to do, ask. If you really feel lost on what you're supposed to do, ask. Really, if you get confused at all-ask.I work in a kitchen, and I had to learn a lot of things that go against my nature. I had to learn to be loud, I had to learn to give orders, I had to learn not to be clumsy, I had to learn to take burns/cuts/bruises in relative silence. It wouldn't do to disturb the customers, after all.
