5.0 out of 5 stars From tools and workshop equipment to avoiding problems which lead to maintenance needs, May 26, 2006
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
Both beginners and experienced mountain bike users will benefit from a survey of how to keep the bike in peak condition - and with its specific focus on the mountain bike apart from others, no better home reference can be had than MOUNTAIN BIKE MAINTENANCE. From tools and workshop equipment to avoiding problems which lead to maintenance needs, chapters cover all part of a bike, including on-trail repair tips, and come from an experienced bicycling magazine editor who has worked for a number of major cycling publications.

5.0 out of 5 stars Get this book, October 30, 2007
By dasn0wman "dasn0wman" (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This is a super book and pretty much all you really need to maintain your mtn bike. I'm so turned off by the thousand page manual books on bike repair. This book does it in only few hundred pages and in full color. Foreword by Gary Fisher, the father of mtn biking, lets you know this book is the real deal!

5.0 out of 5 stars very good maintenance book, June 7, 2008
This book has plenty of color pictures and the text has enough information to perform most of the maintenance or repairs in a mountain Bike. I found this book very useful, being a self taught weekend "mechanic". Overall I recommend this book, I also have the Big Blue Book that is a little less graphic, I think its a good idea to have (and read)at least these two books if you want to do bike maintenance specially in models with newer components.

This book is OK. The pictures are a little small and the writer sounds like a non-engineer...
