Cytech to run bike clinic feature at National Cycling Show this weekend

Posted on in Business News , Cycles News

Managed by the Association of Cycle Traders (ACT), Cytech's mission is to raise the standard of professional cycle technicians across the globe. The first-rate training facilities now operate in four continents with new workshops opening every year.

At the show Cytech will be delivering bike maintenance sessions on the Cycling 101 Stage with their training provider, Spokes People (formerly PJCS), as well as offering The Bike Clinic on stand D70 throughout both days to answer your questions and give advice on bike repairs, tools and equipment.

The Cytech journey starts with Theory one - an online learning course delivering an introduction to bicycle maintenance that can be completed anywhere, in your own time – you can even try for free! There’s also a National Cycling Show offer of £50 off the full course until the end of June.

SAVE £50 WITH CODE NCS22www.cytechtheoryone.co.uk

This gives candidates the opportunity to achieve Cytech technical one in a more flexible way. Once candidates have completed Cytech theory one, it is easy to upgrade to the full Cytech technical one qualification by completing a short practical assessment with any of our Cytech training providers.
