About Cycle CPD (and Chris)

Cycle CPD was created to give more people in Wales the confidence to look after their own bikes and keep riding safely.

Your trainer, Chris, is a qualified lecturer and Level 3 Cytech Master Technician with years of experience teaching bike maintenance at Gower College. He now runs Cycle CPD and has launched the first Cytech training centre in Wales, delivering accredited training for cycling professionals and mechanics.

While Cytech courses are aimed at professionals who need formal accreditation, these group maintenance sessions are for anyone who rides a bike: children and young people, club riders, ride leaders, and people who cycle to work. The focus is on empowering people to:

  • Understand the basics of safe bike setup
  • Spot common issues before they become problems
  • Handle simple fixes themselves
  • Know when it’s time to take their bike to a shop

Chris’s teaching style is practical, friendly and hands‑on. Sessions are designed so every participant leaves feeling more confident around their bike, whatever their starting point.

Frequently asked questions

Where are you based?

We're based in Swansea, but we offer cycle maintenance training throughout Wales.

We can:

  • Come to your location (school, club, community centre, workplace), or
  • Arrange training at an agreed venue in your area.

We’ll confirm the best option with you after you submit the form.

Who is this training for?
  • Schools (primary, secondary, colleges)
  • Cycling clubs and race teams
  • Community groups and youth organisations.
  • Workplace cycling or wellbeing groups.
What level of bike knowledge do we need?

 None at all.

We tailor the session to each group’s current level, from complete beginners who’ve never fixed a puncture, through to experienced riders who want more advanced maintenance skills. 

How many people can take part?
  • Ideal group size: 3-10
  • Minimum group size: 3
  • Maximum group size: 10 (we can discuss larger groups by splitting into multiple sessions).
Do participants need to bring their own bikes or tools?

Typically:

  • We recommend participants bring their own bikes so they learn on the bikes they actually ride (but we can also provide bikes).
  • We can provide all the tools you need, but if you already have a workshop or tools on site, you're welcome to use your own.
