Reviews Good book, but video would be better  by: on: 23-Sep 2009 I thought this book was pretty well done, but I find that I can't learn this type of skill very well from reading about it. Video seems to work better for me. Brian Lopes is certainly well qualified and has some great stories in the book. Great book  by: on: 14-Jul 2009 I am just getting into mountain biking (bit of a roadie), and this book is great. It is definitely more advanced than my beginning talent, but it gives me a place to start and goals to work towards. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to be a better mountain biker. If you enjoy gentle singletrack once a month don't bother. If you want to increase your speed and skills it is a must have. Great skills book by: on: 06-Jul 2009 This book is great, really helps fine tune your skills and sheds light on how to do a lot of things correctly to help ride faster/safer. Two thumbs up. Easy to follow, in-depth description, of how to do anything on a mountain bike by: on: 05-Jul 2009 I'm someone who learns pretty well from books, but I don't think you need to be to like this one. I've bought a lot of books with this thought in mind on mountaineering, skiing, telemarking, soccer...you name it. This is by far one of the best books I have ever read to learn techniques. And, I believe the reason it is so good is because it is written by two people who are probably a bit different in the way they learned the sport of mountain biking. It's obvious that Brian Lopes is the "natural" athlete, and much of the information comes from breaking down what he does in different situations on a bike. Lee McCormack is no slouch and it is his left brain approach and his ability to break moves down into do-able steps that makes this book so accessible. If your into mountain biking, expert or novice, this book will help you improve. View All ReviewsView All Mountain Biking Books |
