Barnett to offer E-Bike Fundamentals course this summer

Published May 10, 2018

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (BRAIN) — Barnett Bicycle Institute will launch a new multi-day course on e-bikes next month.

E-Bike Fundamentals is a three-and-a-half day course that will be held June 25-28. The class will cover a wide range of topics inlcuding the e-bike classification system, workshop setup and safety, electronics fundamentals, and systems overviews from major e-bike suppliers.

"We are very excited to be diving in to this new territory. We recognize there are barriers that prevent some retailers from selling and servicing e-bikes. We designed this class to help remove as many of those barriers as possible so shops can start to capture what's proving to be a growing revenue stream," BBI said in a news release.

The initial class offering will be a supplement to BBI's Bicycle Repair and Overhaul course and enrollment will be limited to BBI students or graduates, and present or past bicycle industry professionals.

To sign up for the class or for questions, contact BBI at manager@bbinstitute.com or 719-632-5173.
