Hi Gary, I would be interested in an advanced class. I have a 2009 6.9 Trek Madone with Sram Red. I would like to learn how to: 1) Replace bottom bracket 2) Replace crankset (swap back and forth between standard and compact cranks) 3) Adjust gears 4) True a wheel, I bought a trueing stand but... 5) I have to discus this next one with you, and might take another class but I would like to learn how to properly remove my ceramic bearings for cleaning/lube (front and rear hubs) and reinstall. To do this properly I understand that I will need to purchase a bearing press, perhaps you can suggest a good one. Here is the one I was looking at: http://www.prowheelbuilder.com/product.php?prod_id=913 and removel tool: http://www.prowheelbuilder.com/product.php?prod_id=912
