Adjustment of the rear derailleur on the bike

The rear derailleur must be adjusted for example when it is hard to change gears or the gears shift all by themselves. The bike is positioned on a work stand, allowing the mechanic to turn the wheels with ease.

BikeEmotion is a bicycle shop in Uccle. Geert Heugebart took over this shop in 2011 and is responsible for the sale, rental and maintenance of bikes. He employs three people in this private limited company (SPRL). He has his own workshop, where he repairs bicycles and parts from all brands.

Marcel is the mechanic and has worked at BikeEmotion for three years. He did an apprenticeship in Radeberg, where he became a bike mechanic. It was one of the only schools in Germany to offer this training, which lasts two years.
