Build a Bike

In five days we will build a “freedom machine” from scratch! Working with a renowned bicycle framebuilder, students will cut steel, file and prep, fit tubes and lugs, braze it all up, and ready the completed frame for powder coating. …three days down. On the fourth, while the frame is being powder coated, we will go for a leisurely ride (bikes provided), have a picnic, brew some coffee, enjoy a bit of two-wheeling camaraderie. On day five we will work with a local master mechanic to build up the complete bike in time to be ridden in to the Spring Breakthrough closing ceremony.
