Fat Tire Reviews From: I.D. MAGAZINE By Tom Vanderbilt Fat Tire provides a wide-ranging breezy account of the transition from thrift-store "clunkers" to a multimillion-dollar industry in which industrial designers and engineers used high-performance metals such as titanium and composite materials, and have introduced innovations ranging from disk brakes to the Y-frame. They also shaved, in a single year, some six pounds off the weight of the average bike. Mountain biking, the authors write, has become a "vehicle for competition, commerce, artistic expression, fashion, friendly association and pilgrimage." Its constituency has broadened to include everyone from the "bacon" (bike slang for scab) covered, mud-splattered downhillers to outlaw messengers to Berkeley bike cops; and the junk parts of yesteryear have been supplanted by RapidFire shifters and Spinergy composite wheels. The original desire to get the best ride "using whatever technology possible" lingers on, however, in the quest for the tire that never goes flat or the derailleur-less design. Fast company, indeed. If you love mountain bikes, check out Fat Tire, a new book about the history of the most popular type of bicycle sold in America. The book, which has part of an actual knobby mountain bike tire stripped across the cover, tells how, in less than 25 years, the mountain bike evolved from the old balloon tire Schwinns of the 1930s into the world's most popular style of bicycle. The cover alone of Fat Tire: A Celebration of Mountain Biking makes it a great gift. A large, rubber tire tread is laid across the hard cover in this bountifully illustrated homage to this cycling phenomena. Created by Lee Jakobs, photographer Robert Carra and writer Dan Imhoff, this is an entertaining and passionate look at culture, equipment, places and key people of this radical bike evolution.

The item is as described and works! I'm very happy with my purchase and definitly reccomend this seller as I could easily see myself buying from them again. The only qualm I have is that they sent it in a thin cardboard/paper envelope that offered no water proofing of any kind, luckily the item arrived with no damage but the cd itself was loose in the case and the case was itself loose in this cardboar paper envelope with no additional padding or protection. Could work on packing stuff better.

The item is fine but the packaging is terrible considering how far it travelled. Also they are listed as Us seller but it’s shipping for the Uk - this is why it took weeks for me to get the item. If I would have known before that it would take that long I would be as upset as I am now. When I reached out to them they did not mention it and I found out on my own. I reached out because I was concerned that it had been a week and no movement.
