Informative and easy to use online. Didn’t expect much but after starting the course it was really a great experience. Visually pleasant and real demonstration made it simple and easy to comprehend. Will use this site again

Recommending the course for personal bicycle maintenance (NOT for professionals). For the price I think the course is satisfactory. If you want to make it your profession, well I would say take the course for primary knowledge.
