Lesson 1Reassembly, torque finalization, lubrication points, and system-specific torque tablesBring all systems back together with correct torque and lubrication. You go learn where to grease, where to use threadlocker, how to apply system-specific torque tables, and how to complete final safety and function checks.
Thread prep: grease, anti-seize, and threadlockerApply torque tables by system and materialBrake, shifting, and bearing final checksFastener recheck after initial torque passFinal safety sign-off and customer notesLesson 2Safety disassembly sequence and workholding: axle removal, wheel protection, torque wrench and stand setupDetail safe disassembly order and secure workholding. You go learn how to support di bike in di stand, protect wheels and frame, remove axles correct, and stage parts so dat reassembly be efficient, clean, and traceable.

You go learn correct stem and bar torque sequence, saddle and seatpost service, clamp interface prep, and how to verify safe cable and hose routing around controls.
Inspect stem, bar, and control interfacesTorque sequence for stem and handlebarSeatpost cleaning, lube, and insertion depthSaddle angle, setback, and height checksCable and hose routing at cockpit areaLesson 5Brake system service group: pad inspection, rotor wear measurement, caliper alignment checks, bleed preparation and torque values for hose/banjo/lever fittingsFocus on systematic brake service for disc systems. You go learn pad and rotor wear limits, rotor runout checks, caliper alignment, hose and fitting torque values, and how to prepare for safe, clean brake bleeding procedures.
Identify brake type and fluid requirementsPad wear limits and contamination checksRotor thickness, runout, and bolt torqueCaliper centering and mount interface prepHose, banjo, and lever fitting torque setupLesson 6Wheels and tires group: tubeless tape, valve service, rim bed inspection, spoke tension checks, true and dish procedures, tire seating and sealant refreshExplain one complete wheel and tire service workflow. You go learn to inspect rim beds, service tubeless tape and valves, check spoke tension, correct true and dish, and safely seat tires with fresh sealant when required.
