Cytech at the London Bike Show

Posted on 6 Mar 2018

It was great to see so many of you visiting Cytech at The London Bike Show this year!

Cytech, along with training provider ATG Training were on hand at the show to offer advice and answer any technical questions about your bike and the courses available to help you learn how to fix your own bike at home.

We were also offering show visitor's two chances to win great prizes. With our tyre lever competition we invited people to try and guess how many Park Tool tyre levers were in the bowl. Check out the video below to see the final result!

A post shared by Cytech (@cytech.training) on Mar 2, 2018 at 6:37am PST

Even with hundreds of entries there were no correct guesses, but the closest guess at 178 was Tom Jacobs who won himself a Park Tool AK-2 kit!

There's still time to be in with a chance of winning our second prize - a Cytech home mechanic course with ATG Training. All you have to do is complete our two minute survey about bike servicing here and we'll pick a winner at random once the survey has closed later this month.

If you missed us at the show you can always head over to our social media pages to ask us any burning technical questions or take a look at the website to find out more about all our courses.
