  • 3.00 Credits

    This course will introduce the safety rules for the welding lab. This course will cover the issues with dealing with ultraviolet rays, burns, fumes, and electrical hazards. This course will also introduce the print symbols and terminology used in fabricating and welding basic joints that are commonly seen on blueprints. The student will be introduced to the four basic welding processes: gas (oxyacetylene), arc (shielded metal arc welding), MIG (gas metal arc), and TIG (gas tungsten arc) welding. The student will learn proper set up and operating procedures through classroom demonstrations. Special emphasis is placed on safety principles. Theory and operations of shielded metal arc welding equipment will also be covered. Emphasis is on safety, machine settings, and filler metals. Students will also develop a proficiency in theory and operation of shielded metal arc and gas metal arc welding in flat welding position, and horizontal welding position. Students will be introduced to Oxy/Fuel and Plasma metal cutting. Students will also be introduced to metal joining using brazing. (Prerequisite: none) (3 credits: 2 lecture/1 lab)
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course introduces machining operations as they relate to the bicycle manufacturing industry. Topics include machine shop safety, measuring tools, lathes, drilling machines, saws, milling machines, bench grinders, and layout instruments. Upon completion, students should be able to safely perform the basic operations of measuring, layout, drilling, sawing, turning, and milling. Students will be exposed to the machining of materials typical of the bicycle industry including metals and composites. (Prerequisite: none) (3 credits: 2 lecture/1 lab)
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course will familiarize the student with the relationship between computer aided drafting and computer aided machining. Students will learn the principles of CNC machining. Students will learn to transfer CAD data to the machining programs (CAM) and to machine tools using the CAM package. Positive design aesthetics will also be explored and compared to traditional utilitarian design methods. (Prerequisite: none) (3 credits: 2 lecture/1 lab)
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course will explore the evolution and developmental history of the bicycles from first invention concepts to modern day designs including electric assist bikes (E-bikes). Case studies will be conducted looking at commercially unique and engineering milestone bike designs in recent history (such as the rise of mountain biking, bike suspension, commuter bikes, gravel bikes, fat bikes, 26 plus, and e-bikes). Emphasis will be given to both practical facets of bicycle design, as well as artistic facets distinguishing similar bikes from one another. Lab work will include basic assembly, setup, adjustment and repair of modern bike building. (Prerequisite: none) (3 credits: 3 lecture/0 lab)
  • 3.00 Credits

    The primary focus is on joining advanced bicycle materials utilizing the Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) process including materials like CrMo steels, high strength aluminum alloys, stainless steel and titanium. The course will enhance your knowledge of current thinking in arc welding safety, processes, instruction, concepts, equipment & consumables, and improve your welding skills as they pertain to bicycle fabrication. )Prerequisite: BIKE1010) (3 credits: 2 lecture/1 lab)
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course introduces the concepts and capabilities of computer numerical control machine tools. Topics include setup, operation, and basic applications. Upon completion, students should be able to explain operator safety, machine protection, data input, program preparation, and program storage. Machine fixturing specific to bicycle fabrication will be covered. (Prerequisite: BIKE1020) (3 credits: 2 lecture/1 lab)
