    Young Mechanics graduate from the Summer program at Recycle-A-Bicycle.
    Next year's class is wide open, will your child learn bikes inside and
    out through the program?

    Read on about Recycle-A-Bicycle's training program:

    Do they teach greasing tapers before crank installation, or dry tapers?

    Spoke tension "as high as the rim will bear", or set to manufacturers
    specifications with a tensiometer?

    Oil/grease or an adhesive such as Spoke Prep on the spoke threads?
