Bicycle and related repairers
In the ILO's assessment few of the job's tasks can be done by generative AI, or the scores are too spread out to reach gradient 1 — generative AI does not meaningfully take over the core of the work.
Exposure is not job loss: it shows how much of the work generative AI could do today. Whether that turns into transformation, productivity gains or cuts depends on employers, regulation — and on you.
0 = today’s generative AI cannot perform any of the job’s tasks, 100 = it could do all of them fully. The pale band is the spread across tasks.

The AI analysis for this occupation is still being prepared — the background process covers a few occupations every day.
Task by task
The ILO scored every task of the occupation separately, as the average of two AI models (GPT-4o and Gemini). The pale band is the range between the two models' scores, the dot the ILO's final score (for a few tasks expert review placed it outside the band).
- Examining, servicing and repairing bicycles and other non-motorized transport equipment16
- Replacing and repairing components and accessories, such as brakes, gears, driving chain mechanism, wheels, and handle bars15
- Assembling new bicycles, wheelchairs and similar non-motorized equipment.14
- Spray-painting frames12
- Cleaning and lubricating bearings and other moving parts12
- Changing tyres and controlling air pressure10
How much does it affect you?
