The immodestly titled Ultimate Guide to Bicycle Maintenance starts with the basics - what tools might you need? - and stretches all the way to the complexities of mountain bike suspension systems. It's logical, clearly illustrated and even even has warnings for the over-confident. A great user-friendly guide.- Peter Walker in The Guardian.
