1.0 out of 5 stars Unless You Have A Brand New Bike...
Luckily, I got this book from the library before buying it. I own a bike that is about 4 years old (2000 model). This book is dedicated to all brand-new top of the line parts and bikes.

1.0 out of 5 stars Unless You Have A Brand New Bike..., August 5, 2004
This review is from: Mountain Bike Maintenance and Repair: Your Complete Guide to Keeping Your Mountain Bike Going Strongly (Cycling Rescources Series) (Paperback)

When I bought my bike, it was still in the $800-$900 range. Not completely top of the line, but good components. Nothing in this book helped me with the maintenance of them.

Bottom line... if you have a brand new bike that has top of the line components, buy this book. If you are like most people who can't afford $2000+ bikes and want to do their own maintenance, buy "Zinn and The Art of Mountain Bike Maintenance" by Lennard Zinn. You won't regret it!

A meticulous text is decidedly enhanced by full-color photographs which demonstrate everything from basic cleaning and preventive maintenance; to repairs on the trail side; and overhauls to exact maximum performance from one's equipment. Covering just about every piece of biking equipment imaginable, Mountain Bike Maintenance And Repair is an absolute "must-have" instructional and reference for any dedicated mountain biker.
