mtbrider Posted November 7, 2012 Share I have the bicycling book written by Todd Downs. With that book and youtube you will be able to do any repairs. Nice thing is that the book is up to date with the latest technology and parts. My wife says its the only book I ever read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Greyling Posted November 8, 2012 Share Download this. It's insanely detailed but handles just about everything you could ever imagine. Then as said above, check your component specific instructions when installing new stuff. www.esense.be/bike/Barnettmanual.pdf DR ◣◢ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
