Hi

I ve just got a new road bike, so I thinking of getting a road bike specific maintenance book.

What do people think of Zinn and is there any others I should consider before I order?

Thanks in advance,

Aido

    I'm useless when it comes to doing anything practical, but having been bought the Zinn book as a present I've found it very thorough and easy to follow so that I've actually been able to carry out some work myself rather than rely on the LBS. So, personally, I would recommend it.

    the zinn book is quite good; i would also look at the park tool blue book.

    for most things you can get pretty good instructions on the park tool website.
