Got good right ups on Amazon but always a bit weary of Amazon 'customer' reviews.

    Haven't read it but I don't really see the point in buying books to learn bike skills. There are plenty of free "how to" guides online, in txt, pictures and video format.

    As long as the guide was not not made by some random kid, its likely to be from a credible source with the correct technique. Bike radar have done a few of these in the past.

    I do however see the point in paying for an actual person to teach you. That way not only can they show you what to do but also take a look and correct your technique.
