Zinn and the Art of Road Bike Maintenance

Rating:
Summary: Excellent as you would expect
Review: The Man again puts together a usable manual on bicycles. Extremely valuable for it's exploded diagrams and specific take on known, common products. Lennard didn't shy into broad general descriptions of parts, he went right out to show the reader how to work with specific components by brand. Useful, timely and applicable.

Summary: Great book!
Review: This book has taught me a lot about working on my bike. I'd recommend it to anyone who likes (or needs) to work on their bike but doesn't have much experience. I overhauled my front hub and dialed-in my brakes with the help of this book. Highly recommended!

Summary: Ride on!

Summary: Already saving me money!
Review: This book is great! After going to my local bike shop and paying $18 for a simple gear and brake adjustment I knew it was time to start learning how to work on my own bikes. My confidence is growing as I am learning the inner workings of all these formerly "mysterious" mechanical devices. Zinn writes in a way that is easy to understand and gives you confidence. Trust me..nobody will adjust your gears with the precision that you will after you learn how. My shifting has never been smoother! I think besides all of the normal maintenance on my bike, I will probably build one from the ground up as my next project.
I highly reccomend this book if you are mechanically declined (like me) or mechanically inclined.

Summary: Clever,almost spiritual title...Zen!
Review: This is one top selling 'manuals'..for freewheelers. It will be indispensable to all those who,inspired by new release-"Adventure of Two Lifetimes", by Goetz,(2001) will go cross-country... or atleast give it their best (Siddhartha) effort.
