What to expect?

During our Cycle Kitchen you will have access to a great range of cycle maintenance tools and your individual stand and tool kit to work on your own cycle (bike, trike, wheelchair, unicycle ...). You will be joined by other members in a friendly space of learning and practicing. You will work on a maintenance or fixing project of your own choosing. If you're looking for some help diagnosing a problem or need guidance on the best way to apply a fix, we often have a few qualified cycle mechanic volunteers who will be happy to guide you.

We do not have a significant parts bin for rummaging
We do keep a small range of consumables (cable inners, cable outers, end caps, assorted nuts and bolts, tubes, brake pads) for purchase
We have PPE (mask, ear defenders, safety glasses, non-latex gloves) for all attendees, if you have your own we recommend you to bring them
If you need any help or guidance, please ask our volunteers, they are eager to help!
Please note there is no possibility of storing your projects for the next time you come in. Our tool library space is shared and used by different groups throughout the week. We need as much space available for the magic of sharing to happen.
If you're worried about trying to fix something, wether we have the tools, or someone with the knowledge to assist, get in touch with thomas@edinburghtoollibrary.org.uk with your concerns and we'll let you know if we can help!
