If you are interested in how storing bikes works at the Hackspace, please see our Bike Storage page.

Here are photos of all of the tools and explanations of what they are.

If in doubt of any aspects of bike maintenance, David can help.

Bike Tools Owned by the Hackspace:

Sockets and Spanners:

Note that the drawers won't open until you've lifted the lid.

Track pumps:

The tripod-legged track pump needs repair.

Workstand:

It's a bit wobbly, so make sure the quick releases are tight. It's not secure enough to work on pedals or bottom brackets, but it's great for using to set up your brakes and gears. Best to secure your bike by the seatpost, but if your cables aren't routed along the top tube you could turn the clamp and secure it there too.
