Hi all

I bought a little Jialing custom bike recently, not what I'd call a proper motorbike but it's still fun riding it around Beijing, and it saves me lots of time commuting to work. Now I've been riding (much bigger) bikes for more than a decade but have never done any maintenance work myself, and my mechanical knowledge is embarrasingly limited.

But I'd like to change that, and since my Chinese is still rather basic I want to ask people here if anyone has a garage in Beijing, does some work on his bike(s) and would teach me the basics of bike maintenance? I don't expect you to do that for free, I could either pay for using the garage and learning a few tricks, or I could help with any bike projects, I don't mind getting my hands dirty and have used a screwdriver before.

All replies appreciated.
Cheers

Simon
