The author doesn't like cars

Decent used book on bicycles. For beginners, general information not overly technical. Slightly dated at times because it was published 30 years ago but still useful.

[Reed · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a good serious book about the techinical aspects of cycling from the consumer's point of view. It's a bit dated, but for the cycling enthusiast, the information which is out of date is obvious.

What a shame there's no picture for the book cover! This book has lots of interesting and useful info on the world of cycling, competitive, commuting and pastime - but the best part is the fabulous photos throughout.

One of the best bicycle repair self-helps books that i have found. Caters to steel framed non-prententious road bikes. Totally useful!

Similiar to Tony Bacon's "Ultimate Guitar Book." Only downside is some funky pictures of 90s era triathletes.
