The Bicycle Academy has a strong engineering and design pedigree with each of the core team having trained and worked professionally as product, industrial, mechanical or aeronautical design engineers prior to coming together to work at The Bicycle Academy.
We continue to evolve and refine our methods but always teach people how to learn from their experiences, how to develop understanding, and how to teach themselves so that they can continue to progress long after they finish their course.
We want to make it easier for people to get involved in, and progress at, frame building. To help them do so, based upon knowledge and understanding. To ensure that they get to a position where they can engage in meaningful practice.
Not directed doing, painting by numbers or simply learning by rote. Tacit skill refinement based upon explicit understanding. The very best way to learn; hand and head working together.
