Book Reviews of Complete Idiot's Guide to Bike Maintenance and Repair

Book Review: Not enough substance or details
Summary: 2 Stars

This book is a general introduction to bikes and bike maintenace, not a book that will guide you through difficult repairs or even many routine adjustments. The book's breezy, informal tone is friendly at first but becomes annoying when using the book as a repair guide.

Summary of Complete Idiot's Guide to Bike Maintenance and Repair

The Complete Idiot's Guide(r) to Bike Maintenance and Repair provides recreational cyclists with the "do-it-yourself" means to maintain and service their own bikes without having to pay someone else to do the dirty work. Rather than spanning the entire field of bicycling, this book focuses on those things readers need to know in order to keep their bikes safe and trouble-free-- including, bike basics, workings, maintenance before and after riding, tools and accessories and common repairs.
