Good introduction to cycling. May 13, 2007
By Arq Paulo Barrelas
"vertex tutor"
This book is a good introduction to cycling. It will give good tips on how to set up your riding position, ride securely, differences between mountain biking and road biking, buying appropriate clothing, etc. I'm not a total newbie on MTB but i learned a lot with this book.
I gave 5 stars to this book because as the title says, this is a book for the new cyclist, so if you are a more advanced rider, you can still find it useful but you should look out to something more specific.

EVERYONE needs a little help every now and then! Jun 26, 2006
By Kirby Reese VERY informative little book, I must say. While some of the instructions go a little "over the top", length-wise,(changing a flat tire), it is always feasible to be too"wordy", than not"wordy" enough. Basic maintenance is crucial to enjoying a bike, and to think nothing is going to happen to your bike while riding, is asking for trouble. This book should be standard reading for all bike enthusiasts....mountain AND road. It answers most of the beginning cyclist's questions with easy to read text. Even seasoned "veterans" will appreciate the full spectrum of subjects included in this paperback.

Tries to Serve Too Broad an Audience May 03, 2009
By Kenny I purchased this book because I wanted to purchase a new bike, but am confused by all the new technology that today's bicycles have. People spend outragous prices for the simplest of parts. Which parts do I need and are worth the money? Which are not? What kind of a bike do I want for the riding I do?
The book has one section for me. Then it takes off on a wild ride including "training for a century." If you are a casual rider, then training for a century and the other stuff is of no interest to you. And if you are an avid enthusiast, you don't need to be told what a mountain bike is.
It just tries to serve too broad an audience. On the positive side, it is not expensive, and it may have the one or two tips that you are looking for that will make it well worth your money, such as appear in the section on solving common ailments.
I wish that someone would write a book for the person who is new to modern biking. I can't find one. The magazines are no help. They think a cheap bike is one under two thousand dollars!

a good review for old cyclists May 19, 2010
By The Watcher
"The Watcher"
I haven't been on a bike in thirty five years. Now I'm trying to get back on it. This book is an excellent source of information. I think it is great for new cyclists or us older riders who want to get back on the bike.

Ton of information in a tiny package Aug 08, 2011
By Pai When I first picked up this book from the library, I was surprised to see how thin the book was. I was expecting to flip through this book in about an hour and to maybe find a few useful tips in it. On the contrary, it turned out to be one of the most informative books I've read on bicycling. Almost each and every page had something or the other that was useful. I had already read about 2 or 3 other beginner books on bicycling. But in spite of that, I found this book to have a ton of useful information. By no means is this a reference book on bicycling. Or does it even try to go in depth into the science & physiology related aspects of bicycling. But it does provide practical, useful information in a no-nonsense fashion that makes it a refreshing read. I finished the entire book in 2 sittings. And then went for a second read a week later.
Highly recommend it to anyone new to bicycling who wants a robust introduction & good advice on several aspects of bicyling - without having to spend days reading a book with several hundred pages in it.
