Bateleur1 Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 Did a quick search but could not find something on theHub. I need a good book on bike maintenance (Road and Mountain Bike). Took the daughters bike in for a service here in Germany and lets just say that a service in SA was considerably cheaper than here in Germany. Now we have expanded rapidly to six bikes that needs to be maintained and serviced and at 70 Eur a pop it will be well to my benefit to start doing my own maintenance. I know Park tool has a book. Are there any other suggestions? I knew there was another book but cannot remember the name. It had two editions, one for Road bike and the other for Mountain bike maintenance.
droo Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 Who is Mike and why do you need to maintain him? The Park Tool Big Blue Book and Zinn and the art of road / MTB maintenance are the ones you're after assuming the title was a typo...
fanievb Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 Parktool FTW the other book you thinking of is the bicycling mag book http://fitshop.co.za/product/bicycling-essential-road-bike-maintenance-handbook/http://fitshop.co.za/product/complete-bicycling-maintenance-and-repair/ depending on what you want to do, you don't need a book. A tablet with an interwebs connection is all you need when you are busy and need to check somethingsome of the sources I usehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVA0MJb3K3TBhI9eCF3E6kAhttp://www.parktool.com/blog/repair-helphttp://si.shimano.com/

Falco Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 Who needs books when we have Google? And YouTube for those who struggle to read?
