Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: April 2024


This unit describes the performance outcomes required to repair and overhaul bicycle wheels with different hub, spoke and rim configurations. It involves preparing for the work, selecting and using specialist tools and equipment, repairing and testing the bicycle wheels and hubs to manufacturer specifications, and completing workplace processes and documentation.

It applies to those working in the bicycle retail, service and repair industry.

No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

Before competency can be determined, individuals must demonstrate they can perform the following according to the standard defined in this unit’s elements, performance criteria, range of conditions and foundation skills:

repair and overhaul three different bicycle wheels and hubs according to manufacturer specifications, including:

one spoke wheel

one disc wheel.

Individuals must be able to demonstrate knowledge of:

work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to repairing and overhauling bicycle wheels and hubs, including procedures for:

manually handling bicycle wheels

identifying workplace hazards

using tools and equipment, including personal protective equipment (PPE)

environmental requirements, including procedures for disposing of waste materials

key bicycle wheel and hub terminology

wheel and hub mechanical principles

types of bicycle wheel and hub systems and components

techniques and processes for repairing and overhauling bicycle wheels and hubs, including:

types of wear or faults in bicycle wheel and hubs

measuring techniques

torque measurement and adjustment of wheels

testing procedures.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.

Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.

Assessment must include direct observation of tasks.

Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the bicycle wheels and hubs that they have repaired and overhauled, e.g. repair orders.

Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.

The following resources must be made available:

bicycle workplace or simulated workplace

workplace instructions detailing job requirements

wheel and hub technical and component specifications

PPE required to repair and overhaul bicycle wheels and hubs

three different bicycles requiring wheel and hub system repair and overhaul as specified in the performance evidence

tools and equipment appropriate for repairing and overhauling bicycle wheels and hubs.
