Reviews Essential fundamentals are never outdated. by: on: 10-Nov 2009 What I love most about this book is it teaches the essential elements about how you balance a bike. This never gets old or outdated. Yes, the newer books are more advanced, but that is a selling point for this book, even if you are not a beginner. Also, the more times and the more different ways you take in information, the better you understand it. Well worth the time spent. Mountain Bike! by: on: 12-Jan 2008 In 2008, maybe a little dated as far as things like 'clip-in' pedals, but content and technique is spot on, and very humorous. A worthwhile read every year. I've given a copy to several mtb. riders. A great book to just thumb through all the time. Excellent! Solid book by: dasn0wman on: 30-Oct 2007 Not sure on negative reviews, but this is solid book on mtn biking. Granted some things are not up-to-date, but c'mon, do you need someone telling you that clipless pedals are the latest and greatest? Duh. The skills taught here are fundamental and very practical. What really separate this book from others is that the author tells it all, his bad experiences, good experiences and how we can learn from them. Very, very useful and will help you avoid countless cuts and bruises you would have gotten had you learned them from experience! And it's so much fun to read because the humor is just hilarious! This is still what mountain biking is about by: on: 28-Jan 2007 This book will never be dated. It captures the essence of what mountain biking is about. You ride for fun - not for getting the teeny-weenie details just right with the clip of today. I read this book every time I'm depressed or out with an injury - which means 5-6 times a year :-) It is still so much fun and the best MTB book ever drawn (and written). If you don't fall in love with this book - go ride on the roads! View All ReviewsView All Mountain Biking Books |
