Rating: Summary: Atomic Zombie hits the Mark Review: This is the definitive text for chop-shop bike building. It details the basics, from what tools to select as well as how to build a work bench. It instructs in basic welding, assemby and disassembly, tool techniques and skils. Plans and projects are explained in detail that is straight foreward and easy to understand. I've been attempting to build a bike for months, then one day I spotted a copy of this book. I can honestly say that this book has helped complete my project. Thanks, Atomic Zombie!
Rating: Summary: One of a Kind Review: What a great book! I was expecting it to cover just the bike plans and instructions, but it went so much further. It has chapters on finding old bikes, what to look for, how to cut tubes, basic welding skills, and everything else you'll need to get started.If you're planning on building *any* type of bike, unusual or not, this book is the place to start. Even with 400 pages and a ton of text, I couldn't put it down and read the whole thing in a day. It's a little on the pricy side, and I was hoping for color photos - but I'm still going to give it 5 stars because it's so unique and the information is amazing.
