Professional Bicycle Mechanic
A career mechanic who loves to work on bicycles.
Excellent pay, starting at $20-30 per hour DOE
Full Time position with 2 weeks paid vacation
About You: 2 years full-time experience (not necessarily all paid, examples: you have volunteered at a non-profit bike shop, or you have been a home mechanic). You know how to build wheels, but if not, then we will teach you. You know a lot about bikes but still enjoy learning something new every day. You are not a know it all and are not afraid to say, “I don’t know, let me find out.” Must not be afraid to look it up or read the instructions! You must be familiar with the parts of a bike (or at least know where to look for info). You must be comfortable wrenching on department store bikes or Campagnolo dream machines as well as everything in between. You must work well with people and not mind if the customer watches you work. You are not introverted. We have an open-air shop and the customers can watch (from 6 feet away). You must be extremely organized, efficient and clean. Must be friendly and a good listener. Must be open to our way of bike repair, but we recognize there are often many ways to the same result.
About our shop: Rat City Bikes is extremely professional, organized and clean shop. We have 3 fully equipped workbenches. We have nearly every tool currently available (and for the last 50 years!). If we do not have the tool, we will purchase it or manufacture it! We have a Southbend 9” Lathe. We use a sister fabrication shop for welding and machining beyond what can be done in the shop and work with several paint shops. We specialize in internally geared hubs. We service several per day. You will learn how to service them! We also work on many kids bikes.
Other Benefits:
PBMA membership, training and continuing education
Online training while at work in the slow season (e.g. Shimano S-Tec)
Attend Frostbike or CABDA
Wholesale prices on parts and accessories for you and gifts for your immediate family.
Shop pays for lunch on Fridays.
We pay real living wages that allow you to purchase your own insurance thru Obamacare.
