Book Reviews of Mastering Mountain Bike Skills
Book Review: Great Book
Summary: 5 Stars
I am fairly new to mountain biking (riding one season before reading the book) and found almost all of the tips and instructions very helpful. I used many of the tips this season (my second) and found I am a much better rider now. I plan to go back and reread the entire manual now because it is written for every skill level, so some of the things that were over my head I think I will now understand. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who isn't an expert already.Book Review: Increasing your riding skils.
Summary: 5 Stars
After a lot of years riding bikes we became to believe we know almost anything about but, it's far to be true.
Usefull book for beginer to advanced bike user, a lot of hints and knowledges about how to do right and wrong things riding bike like a professional.
To me, the best paragraph was "do not use your brakes, let your bike cosat free"...top words. It's hard to do but your bike riding style increase astonishing by doing that.
Book Review: Tons of knowledge
Summary: 5 Stars
This books covers wide range of technique and knowledge. Some of them are pretty new to me and probably not on other books. It simply describe the concept/physics and comes with a lot of beautiful color pictures. I consider myself a beginner to midlevel rider. It is fun to read this book even I can not do those tricks/jumps yet. Definetly get this book if you are serious about mountain biking.Book Review: Great book
Summary: 5 Stars
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.Book Review: Great book!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great book for anyone wanting to set out mountain biking with good fundamentals. Of course Brian Lopes is an awesome biker, but he and Lee McCormack distill the content to be applicable to the beginner and up levels. And it's structured in such a way that you don't need to go sequentially through it, but can pick-and-choose specific areas that you want to work on.
