Review: Fantastic Reference Manual - If you ride a bike, do yourself a favour and pick up a basic set of tools and this book. It has proven to be invaluable to me and my families bikes. I picked up this book in July of 2023, so I've had it for a little under a year, and the amount of times I've used it I'm sure I've a ton of money in bike shop repairs. Some could argue that with internet forums and YouTube that you don't need a book like this, but when you're in the midst of doing battle against a squeaky bottom bracket with your hands covered in grease, who wants to scroll through a forum full of differing opinions, or sit through another YouTube ad. It's much easier to have this book open. All the steps and tools needed are clearly noted and are simple enough for anyone to understand, and the advice given throughout the book is top notch. With bike shop repair prices going up and up, I really can't recommend this book highly enough. Review: This manual is worth every penny you would spend on this book - I would highly recommend this as it is a great bicycle work manual with great diagrams easy to follow instructions so glad that I brought this as I was looking at several other books and had read the reviews on this one and it definitely deserves every good review I am definitely not a good bicycle mechanic this is the first time I've ever bought a mountain bike or any bike with disc brakes yet I managed to service my bikes disc brakes using this very good manual it was worth every bit of the money I spent on the book 👍👍 I would highly recommend this book ## Features - New Store Stock ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 297,117 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 35 in Bicycle Repair 49 in Mountain & Off-Road Cycling 96 in Multidiscipline Sports | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,524 Reviews | ## Images ![Zinn and the Art of Mountain Bike Maintenance: The World's Best-Selling Guide to Mountain Bike Repair - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71C6cnalFlL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Reference Manual *by M***H on 14 May 2024* If you ride a bike, do yourself a favour and pick up a basic set of tools and this book.
