UBI Teaching Philosophy

At United Bicycle Institute, learning bicycle mechanics is fun - serious fun - and every UBI instructor understands that when learning is fun, it's effective! While ensuring every student's enjoyment, we also pay close attention to safety, reliability, efficiency, and industry standards. Each UBI lesson builds an understanding of how each system on a bicycle works before demonstrating how to service it. This combination of experiencing why and how, along with significant hands-on learning time, allows students to hone their problem solving skills and become well-rounded mechanics. Because each member of the UBI team draws from a wide array of industry experience and teaching styles, instructors consistently earn rave reviews from graduates.
