About this item

Mountain bikes are one of the hottest trends in bicycling, and Stevenson adds to a surprisingly large number of books already available. However, while most focus on riding and trails, this is essentially a repair manual written in an easy-to-read format. Stevenson's style combines a personal acquaintance with the sport and hands-on experience with maintenance. The layout and design make the contents accessible. Photos and good illustrations on virtually every page ensure quick mastery of the essentials (parts, tools, procedures, safety, etc.). This book is recommended as a practical repair manual or an interesting introduction to the sport.-Nancy E. Zuwiyya, Binghamton City Sch. Dist., N.Y.Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc.
