Hi
Looking for a mountain bike repair book for partners son aged 18. He
has spent £2000 on his new bike, and wants to be able to maintain it.
This is his third cycle that he has owned and thus wants to be able
to learn about repairing them. Any help appreciated

The Haynes Bike Book is pretty good
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bike-Book-Fred-Milson/dp/1844254216/ref=pd_sbs_b_shvl_title_1/203-7098271-9077515

Though these days, If I'm near a computer then this web-site does it
all... http://www.parktool.com/repair/

Anyone seen the new Haynes Mountain Bike book yet - I just saw it
while surfing and wondered if it's worth it - looks interesting...

HTH,

Duncan

There's a Park book as well. It would make a nice present if it's as good
as the website.

Sequi Bonum Non Time

After things go from bad to worse, the cycle will repeat itself.

Also a manula called Barnetts . Search for Barnetts and look at
'bbtinstitute' link. You can build up a set of free chapters over a
year or so.

Zinn and the Art of Mountain Bike Maintenance - very strongly recommended:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Zinn-Art-Mountain-Bike-Maintenance/dp/193138259X/

Clear illustrations all through; excellent, clear text; describes all
mainstream parts and a good few less common ones.
