D-Mike Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 I received this email from Bicycling Does anyone have this book and is it worth getting? Thanks
Li Mu Bai Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 it will most likely be a compendium of the published tips and advice from the magazine issues. all useful.
onetrackmind Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Not sure how much use it will be, probably all American content. We ride on the other side of the road.
scotty Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 I have the Bicycling Maintenance DVD, very informative.
bikekid Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Ordered and paid for my copy in mid December but they ran out of stock. Was told the next batch of books will be available mid Feb...
Just Keep Pedaling Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 I have the Park Tool Blue book but I often find it too technical and aimed at professional mechanics. Maybe this one is more dumbed down, which is good.
bikekid Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Sorry for the hijack OP but out if interest I ordered the below from Kalahari.net for R96 (shipping included because of the free shipping promotion) Bicycling Magazine's Mountain Biking Skills https://www.kalahari.com/profile/books/Bicycling-Magazines-Mountain-Biking-Skills/632/28267117.aspx Ordered mid December but only getting it this Friday as they had to order from supplier in the USA. Prob might not be as good as the Brian Lopes book but at that price its a steal and worth a read....
Caerus Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 I have the Bicycling Maintenance DVD, very informative. Where did you get this?
scotty Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Where did you get this? Ordered it a few years back, i also have the Zinn Art of Bicycling maintenance DVD and Park Tool Blue book.
Caerus Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Ordered it a few years back, i also have the Zinn Art of Bicycling maintenance DVD and Park Tool Blue book. I've got the Blue Book, but I would also like to see someone doing the repair/ maintenance. You could always burn them for me

deanbean Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Rather buy the Park Blue book or Zinn's book.
