Mikey, Cycle Transitions is having challenges finding a suitable location at a reasonable cost so we're looking at alternative models to the traditional fixed location. One of these is a storage unit plus a mobile workshop - whether that be a smaller one pulled by a bike or a larger one either pulled by a vehicle or is a panel van of sorts. Ideally the unit would be able to meet the needs of servicing most repairs and and/or have the equipment for the safe cycling courses we do out on location.

Do you intend to carry replacement parts? Whats your budget?  How will it be transported?  I attached a document of our common tool layout when working on basic bikes.  Add a spoke wrench bottom brack tool and cassette/freewheel tools.

Does any group out there have a mobile workshop? Or have experience and/or suggestions on the size, set-up for a good mobile workshop? We're pursuing the idea of making one and would love to hear from others about their experience with this method of meeting the needs in the community and if there are any ideal models.

(I've looked to see if there are past posts on this subject but the search engine doesn't seem to be working right now.)
